[Research Progress of Relationship between Pleural Deformation and 
Visceral Pleural Invasion in Lung Cancer Manifesting as Ground-glass Opacity]

Visceral pleural invasion (VPI) is one of the negative prognostic factors of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). With the popularization of computed tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer, more and more ground-glass nodule (GGN) have been found. However, it remains unclear whether the relationship between the pleural deformation of lung cancer manifesting as ground-glass opacity (GGO) and VPI affects the effect of sub-lobectomy, which is reviewed in this paper.
