The specific diagnosis in diffuse interstitial lung disease may be obtained through open lung biopsy. Diffuse interstitial lung disease is often associated with lung cancer. We report one case of lung adenocarcinoma with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in whom previous open lung biopsy had been performed. We need general concepts about sites of open lung biopsy in these patients. Therefore, we report this case and document other references. (Korean J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2004;37:1032-1035)
