Fig. 5From: Comparative postoperative outcomes of GGN-dominant vs single lesion lung adenocarcinomasa The transition in the size of 38 unresected GGNs on CT. b Comparison of the tumor diameter before surgery between lesions with and without growth. The preoperative tumor size of GGNs was significantly larger in comparison to tumors that did not grow in size (mean size, 11.7 ± 5.8 mm vs. 6.9 ± 3.8 mm, P = 0.0003).
