Tumour-pleura relationship on computed tomography (CT) provides effective risk stratification for peripheral pulmonary nodules with Lung Imaging Reporting and Data System (Lung-RADS) score of 4X.
Background: Pulmonary nodules with Lung Imaging Reporting and Data System (Lung-RADS) 4X are of greater clinical significance, and accurate differentiation of pathological types and visceral pleural invasion (VPI) of Lung-RADS 4X peripheral pulmonary nodules before treatment can aid in stratification. This study set out to investigate whether the tumour-pleura relationship on computed tomography (CT) can provide effective risk stratification for peripheral pulmonary nodules with Lung-RADS 4X.
Methods: This was a single institution, retrospective study of 482 consecutive patients with Lung-RADS score 4X, who were pathologically diagnosed with tuberculous granuloma and adenocarcinoma from January 2019 to December 2023. We assessed clinical factors (baseline characteristics and tumour markers) and CT findings. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the classification of pulmonary nodules and predictors of VPI.
Results: Multivariate analysis revealed that gender [odds ratio (OR) =0.392; P<0.001], carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level (OR =8.331; P<0.001), type of nodules (OR =13.551 and 7.478; P<0.001 and P=0.016) and maximum base width of soft tissue component on the pleura side (OR =0.857; P=0.005) were significant independent factors for distinguishing tuberculous granuloma from adenocarcinoma. And the type of linear connection between lesion and pleura (OR =3.936; P<0.001), and the maximum base width of soft tissue components on the pleura side (OR =1.359; P=0.001) were correlated independently with VPI. The area under the curve (AUC) for predicting pulmonary nodules classification was 82.60% [95% confidence interval (CI): 78.85-86.35%), and the AUC for predicting VPI was 76.10% (95% CI: 69.83-82.38%).
Conclusions: The tumour-pleura relationship will be helpful in further risk stratification for peripheral pulmonary nodules with a score of Lung-RADS 4X.
