• There are not standard guidelines for the selection and treatment of patients with synchronous multiple nodules with ground glass/lepidic features. • The presence of different EGFR mutations in the various resected nodules with ground glass/lepidic features suggests the existence of multifocal primary tumors. • The results suggest the possibility that a germline mutation in an oncogene could facilitate the development of a tumor with additional mutations in the same oncogene

Abstract

• There are not standard guidelines for the selection and treatment of patients with synchronous multiple nodules with ground glass/lepidic features. • The presence of different EGFR mutations in the various resected nodules with ground glass/lepidic features suggests the existence of multifocal primary tumors. • The results suggest the possibility that a germline mutation in an oncogene could facilitate the development of a tumor with additional mutations in the same oncogene
