Adenocarcinoma in situ and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma in lungs of smokers: image feature differences from those in lungs of non-smokers

Abstract Purpose We aimed to examine the characteristics of imaging findings of adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) in the lungs of smokers compared with those of non-smokers. Materials and methods We included seven cases of AIS and 20 cases of MIA in lungs of sm...

Materials and methods We included seven cases of AIS and 20 cases of MIA in lungs of smokers (pack-years ≥ 20) and the same number of cases of AIS and MIA in lungs of non-smokers (pack-years = 0). We compared the diameter of the entire lesion and solid component measured on computed tomography (CT) images, pathological size and invasive component diameter measured from pathological specimens, and CT values of the entire lesion and ground-glass opacity (GGO) portions between the smoker and non-smoker groups. Results The diameters of AIS and MIA on CT images and pathological specimens of the smoker group were significantly larger than those of the non-smoker group (p = 0.036 and 0.008, respectively), whereas there was no significant difference in the diameter of the solid component on CT images or invasive component of pathological specimens between the two groups. Additionally, mean CT values of the entire lesion and GGO component of the lesions in the smoker group were significantly lower than those in the non-smoker group (p = 0.036 and 0.040, respectively). Conclusion AIS and MIA in smoker’s lung tended to have larger lesion diameter and lower internal CT values compared with lesions in non-smoker’s lung.
