Brief Summary

Lung cancer has been the most commonly diagnosed cancer globally over the past few decades. Histologically, adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) are defined as cancers with no or limited tissue infiltration. Studies have shown that patients with AIS or MIA have a 100% probability of being free of recurrence within 5 years after surgery and have disease-specific survival rates of 100% and 100%, respectively. In patients with early-stage lung cancer and benign lesions, long-term postoperative survival and tumor recurrence are non-priorities. Therefore, perioperative and postoperative quality of life are increasingly emphasized by patients and clinicians. However, a significant proportion of patients undergoing minimally invasive lung surgery still develop chronic pain and chronic cough in the postoperative period, the severity of which can lead to reduced quality of life. In addition, studies of the psychological state of patients undergoing surgery for pulmonary nodules are rare, and we believe this is one of the valuable factors affecting quality of life. The investigators have launched the first prospective observational trial to investigate the incidence of long-term chronic symptoms after minimally invasive lung surgery, risk factors, treatment received and treatment efficacy, duration of disease, and eventual regression, in addition to pre- and postoperative psychological status and long-term postoperative quality of life in patients undergoing minimally invasive lung surgery.
