Objective To explore and analyze the risk factors of pleural invasion in patients with small nodular type stage ⅠA pulmonary adenocarcinoma.Methods From June 2016 to December 2017, 168 patients with small nodular type stage ⅠA pulmonary adenocarcinoma underwent surgical resection in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. There were 59 males and 109 females aged 58.7±11.5 years ranging from 28 to 83 years. The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. Single factor Chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the independent risk factors of pleural invasion.Results Among 168 patients, 20 (11.9%) were pathologically confirmed with pleural invasion and 148 (88.1%) with no pleural invasion. Single factor analysis revealed significant differences (P<0.05) in nodule size, nodule status, pathological type, relation of lesion to pleura (RLP), distance of lesion to pleura (DLP), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation between patients with and without pleural invasion in stage ⅠA pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that significant differences of nodule size, nodule status, RLP, DLP and EGFR mutation existed between the two groups (P<0.05), which were independent risk factors for pleural invasion.Conclusion Imageological-pathological-biological characteristics of patients with small nodular type stage ⅠA pulmonary adenocarcinoma are closely related to pleural invasion. The possibility of pleural invasion should be evaluated by combining these parameters in clinical diagnosis and treatment.
