Abstract

Objective To discuss the imaging of focal ground-glass opacity(FGGO) in clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods The clinical data of 35 cases of such patient were analyzed retrospectively.35 cases less than 2cm were followed up with HRCT.7 cases had disappeared as inflammation.28 cases were further biopsy with VATS or pulmonary lobectomy.Results 28 FGGO were diagnosed as bronchioto-alveolar carcinoma(BAC) in 16 cases,adenocarcinoma in 5 cases,atypical adenomotous hyperplasia(AAH) in 4 cases and local inflammation in 3 cases.The lesion in 18 cases was more than 10mm in size with one or more symbols of malignancy in 16 cases.There were 15 cases in mass.Conclusion The results showed that lasting lesion,edge,mass,symbol inside might be related with benign or malignancy.The lesion 10mm with FGGO should be performed in biopsy.
