Abstract:
In recent years, with the popularization of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) and high-resolution CT (HRCT), the discovery rate of early-staged non-small cell lung cancer has been on the rise, and more thoracic surgeons have explored more reasonable resection scope. Clinical studies have demonstrated that there is a lower rate of local tumor recurrence in patients with negative lung margins compared with positive ones. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance to ensure the negative margin during sublobar resection for early-staged lung cancer. This paper will focus on this area.

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
