This study systemically evaluated the incidence, disease burden, clinicopathological features and risk factors of coexistent pulmonary tuberculosis and lung cancer (TBLC) over 12‐year period in China. Growing cumulative incidence rate of TBLC was revealed, causing increasing disease burden. TBLC presents with certain unique clinicopathological features
