A high-risk nodule for lung cancer means a lung nodule that is highly suspicious for lung cancer.
Lung nodules are actually one of the findings in the lung imaging test, and there are benign and malignant ones. If there are unclear edges, burrs, pleural pulling, obvious ventilation and vascular signs in the examination report, it is very likely to be caused by lung cancer, and therefore it is called high-risk lung cancer nodule.
For patients with high-risk lung cancer nodules, timely surgical resection is recommended, as well as postoperative pathological tissue analysis to determine the specific nature of the nodules. If the nodule is lung cancer, it is necessary to see whether the operation is clean or not; if it is not clean, it is necessary to have a second operation, or to have radiotherapy or chemotherapy and other treatments.
