Abstract
Subcentimeter lung cancers with a GGO component on HRCT (types 1 to 3) can be considered “early” lung cancers. In these cases, limited resection may be warranted to achieve a cure because they had no lymph node metastasis. By contrast, lobectomy should still be considered the standard operation of choice for type 4 tumors.
