Differential Diagnosis of Nonabsorbable Inflammatory and Malignant Subsolid Nodules with a Solid Component ≤5 mm

TL;DR: Nonabsorbable inflammatory and malignant SSNs with a solid component ≤5 mm exhibited different clinical and imaging characteristics, including presence of respiratory symptoms, distribution of middle/lower lobe, irregular shape, part-solid nodule (PSNs), and CT value of ground-glass opacity (GGO) areas.

Role of delayed phase contrast-enhanced CT in the intra-thoracic staging of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): What does it add?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated differences in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) intra-thoracic staging by using contrastenhanced computed tomography (ce-CT) at the arterial phase (AP), at arterial plus delayed phases (AP+DEP), and at the delayed phase (DEP) and evaluated their potential impact on disease staging.

Surgical choice of non-small cell lung cancer with unexpected pleural dissemination intraoperatively

TL;DR: In this paper, a multivariable Cox analysis was applied to identify prognostic factors for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with unexpected pleural dissemination (UPD).

Preoperative percutaneous needle indigo carmine and lipiodol mixture marking in lung segmentectomy.

TL;DR: Thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy with preoperative marking using an indigo carmine and lipiodol mixture may be an acceptable therapeutic option for small malignancies located deep lung parenchyma.

The IASLC Lung Cancer Staging Project: Proposals for the Revisions of the T Descriptors in the Forthcoming Eighth Edition of the TNM Classification for Lung Cancer

TL;DR: Recommendations are to subclassify T1 into T1a, T1b, and T1c, and to group involvement of main bronchus as T2 regardless of distance from carina; to group partial and total atelectasis/pneumonitis as T1; to reclassify diaphragm invasion as T4; and to delete mediastinal pleura invasion as a T descriptor.
