Abstract:
Objective To study the malignant or benign characters of lung mini nodules for diagnosis and treatment.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 80 post-operative cases with pathologically confirmed malignant or benign lung mini-nodules.Results Lung mini-nodule resection cases accounted for 17.7%(80) out of a 451-cases group.Malignant cases accounted for 73.7%(59/80),benign cases 26.3%(21/80).Most of the malignant cases were squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma,while most of the benign cases were tuberculosis and inflammatory pseudo-neoplasms.As for pTNM staging in malignant cases,there were 28 in pT1N0M0,19 in pT1N1M0,1 in pT1N1M1,10in pT1N2M0 and 1 in pT1N2M1;the average survival time was 29.4 months.The accurate rate of pre-operative X-ray and CT scan was 45% and 76.2% respectively.Conclusion For patients with lung mini-nodules <2 cm CT value at 37HU,and the nature unknown ,resection is suggested.
