Abstract Background CT examination for lung cancer has been carried out for more than 20 years and great achievements have been made in the early detection of lung cancer. However, in the clinical work, a large number of advanced central lung squamous cell carcinoma are still detected through bronchoscopy. Meanwhile, a part of CT-occult central lung squamous cell carcinoma and squamous epithelial precancerous lesions are also accidentally detected through bronchoscopy. Methods This study retrospectively collects the medical records of patients in the bronchoscopy room of the Endoscopy Department of Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from January 2014 to December 2018. The inclusion criteria for patients includes: 1.Patient medical records completed, 2.Without history of lung cancer before the diagnosis and first pathological diagnosis of primary lung cancer, 3.Have the lung CT data of the same period, 4.Have the bronchoscopy records and related pathological diagnosis, 5.The patients undergoing radical surgical treatment must have a complete postoperative pathological diagnosis. Finally, a total of 10,851 patients with primary lung cancer are included in the study, including 7175 males and 3676 females, aged 22–98 years. Firstly, 130 patients with CT-occult lesions are extracted and their clinical features are analyzed. Then, 604 cases of single central squamous cell carcinoma and 3569 cases of peripheral adenocarcinoma are extracted and compares in postoperative tumor diameter and lymph node metastasis. Results 115 cases of CT-occult central lung squamous cell carcinoma and 15 cases of squamous epithelial precancerous lesions are found. In the total lung cancer, the proportion of CT-occult lesions is 130/10,851 (1.20%). Meanwhile, all these patients are middle-aged and elderly men with a history of heavy smoking. There are statistically significant differences in postoperative median tumor diameter (3.65 cm vs.1.70 cm, P |
