Although the increased risk of lung cancer, or even 10 pack-year smoking history, history of 30 pack years or more is considered to be the largest development of lung cancer risk. In those smoking two or more packs of cigarettes a day, one in seven will die of lung cancer.Pipe and cigar smoking can cause lung cancer risk, although not as high as with smoking. Thus, while smoking a pack of cigarettes every day of human development, is 25 times higher than non-smokers risk of lung cancer, there is a pipe and cigars about five times the risk of lung cancer in non-smokers.
