Abstract:

With the change of disease spectrum and technology advancement, especially with the screening of early lung cancer, tremendous changes in clinical manifestations have taken place for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which are characterized by the transformation from central type disease to peripheral type disease, from squamous carcinoma to adenocarcinoma, from massive type to small nodule, and from single lesion to multiple lesions. Multiple-lesion lung cancers may be multiple primary lung cancers or lung metastasis of lung cancer, and the differential diagnosis and prognosis are important factors for management strategies. Through recent literature review, in combination with research findings of these kinds of diseases in this hospital, the diagnosis and surgical management of multiple primary lung cancers are introduced in this paper.

Key words: Carcinoma, non-small cell lung, Diagnosis, Surgical procedures, operative
