The overall objective of this review is to analyze the literature published on artificial ventilation in cancer patients. First, we reviewed series of cancer patients treated by mechanical ventilation or intensive care series with data on artificial ventilation in a context of malignant solid tumors, hematology malignancies or complications of bone marrow transplantation. A second part of the review is devoted to characteristic diseases for which specific literature is available, with description of the clinical presentation, the causes and the proposed therapies. The third part is a discussion of considerations on care and therapeutic techniques. Finally, we propose guidelines for a practical approach to this type of patient taking into account the prognosis and new techniques such as noninvasive ventilation.
