Among the c-stage I radiologically invasive lung adenocarcinomas, the EGFR mutation-positive type was correlated with an increased risk of recurrence in the c-T1c/T2a radiologically pure-solid tumour subset. When considering the prognostic value of EGFR mutations in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma, it is necessary to stratify them based on the presence of a ground-glass opacity component.
