A few cold knowledge about pulmonary nodules, I don’t feel anxious after reading it, it is recommended to collect

1. The probability of malignancy of ground glass nodules is greater than that of solid nodules, but if both are malignant, the degree of malignancy of solid nodules is higher than that of ground glass nodules.

2. The transformation of solid nodules into ground glass nodules during follow-up is not necessarily a bad thing. On the contrary, most of them are good things, because the cellular components in them are reduced, and the probability of malignancy is reduced.

3. The malignant probability of solitary nodules is higher than that of multiple nodules, but if the multiple nodules are all malignant, the disease is more severe than that of solitary nodules.

4. Once the lung nodule metastasizes to other organs, no matter how small the nodule is, the possibility of radical cure is almost zero. There is a solitary tumor that can be surgically removed at both ends.

5. Although most lung nodule operations are minimally invasive, they basically require the removal of normal lungs over 7/8 cm, and it is impossible to remove only the nodule itself.

6. Every year, many nodules thought to be lung cancer before surgery are excised and confirmed to be benign. It is not that the doctor is irresponsible, but it is indeed difficult to determine 100% accurate lung nodules before surgery. festival nature.

7. For nodules smaller than 3cm, if no metastasis is detected before surgery, more than 80% of them can be cured, but except for carcinoma in situ, no one can guarantee a cure before surgery.
