Background: The purpose of this multicenter study was to characterize ground glass opacity (GGO)-dominant clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinomas and evaluate prognosis of these tumors after sublobar resection, such as segmentectomy and wedge resection. @@@ Methods: We evaluated 610 consecutive patients with clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinoma who underwent complete resection after preoperative high-resolution CT scanning and F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT scanning and revealed 239 (39.2%) that had a >50% GGO component. @@@ Results: GGO-dominant tumors rarely exhibited pathologic invasiveness, including lymphatic, vascular, or pleural invasion and lymph node metastasis. There was no significant difference in 3-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) among patients who underwent lobectomy (96.4%), segmentectomy (96.1%), and wedge resection (98.7%) of GGO-dominant tumors (P = .44). Furthermore, for GGO-dominant T1b tumors, 3-year RFS was similar in patients who underwent lobectomy (93.7%), segmentectomy (92.9%), and wedge resection (100%, P = .66). Two of 84 patients (2.4%) with GGO-dominant T1b tumors had lymph node metastasis. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that tumor size, maximum standardized uptake value on F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT scan, and surgical procedure did not affect RFS in GGO-dominant tumors. @@@ Conclusions: GGO-dominant clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinomas are a uniform group of tumors that exhibit low-grade malignancy and have an extremely favorable prognosis. Patients with GGO-dominant clinical stage IA adenocarcinomas can be successfully treated with wedge resection of a T1a tumor and segmentectomy of a T1b tumor.
