abstract = {The patient, a 53-year-old woman, was admitted due to “lesion in the left lung found during health check-up 2 years ago” and “a space-occupying lesion in the upper lobe of left lung”. Two years ago, chest CT during health checkup showed a ground-glass opacity (GGO) at the edge of the upper lobe of left lung. However, no special treatment was given. Ten days ago, the patient visited our hospital due to spinal joint conditions. Chest CT showed a spaceoccupying lesion in the upper lobe of left lung. The lesion has slightly irregular border and unclear margin, with mild pleural retraction. The lesion was slightly enlarged compared with that in the CT image 2 years ago. The patient’s complaints did not include cough/expectoration, chest tightness, shortness of breath, low fever, night sweats, nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, diarrhoea, heart palpitations, or discomfort of precordial area. His mental status, physical performance, appetite, and sleep were normal, and the body weight did not obviously change. Urination and defecation were normal.},
