Distinct clinicopathologic factors and prognosis based on the presence of ground-glass opacity components in patients with resected stage I non-small cell lung cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study was to investigate the prognostic value of ground-glass opacity(GGO) components and to evaluate distinct the clinicopathological variables of survival outcomes for the pure-GGO, part-solid and solid groups of patients with resected stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed the structured data for stage I NSCLC patients who had undergone the curative-intent surgical resection in the Lung Cancer Database of West China Hospital from 2009 to 2016. The eligible patients were divided into the pure-GGO, part-solid and solid groups according to the radiological manifestation.
