Abstract
The process for the management of pulmonary nodules in women with pregnant intention remains a challenge. There was a certain proportion of targeted female patients with high-risk lung cancer, and anxiety for suspicious lung cancer in early stage also exists. A comprehensive review of hereditary of lung cancer, effects of sexual hormone on lung cancer, natural history of pulmonary nodules, and computed tomography imaging with radiation exposure based on PubMed search was completed. The heredity of lung cancer and effects of sexual hormone on lung cancer are not the decisive factors, and the natural history of pulmonary nodules and the radiation exposure of imaging should be the main concerns. The management of incidental pulmonary nodules in young women with pregnant intention is an intricate and indecisive problem we have to encounter. The balance between the natural history of pulmonary nodules and the radiation exposure of imaging should be weighed.
