Abstract
Solitary Pulmonary Nodule (SPN) is a term used to describe a single, isolated lesion or abnormality in the lung parenchyma that appears as a discrete spot on radiological imaging. SPNs are frequently encountered in clinical practice, often as incidental findings on chest X-rays or CT scans. The management of SPNs is a critical aspect of pulmonary medicine and oncology, as these nodules can be benign or malignant. This abstract provides an overview of the characteristics, evaluation, and diagnostic approach to SPNs, highlighting the importance of distinguishing between benign and malignant nodules through imaging, biopsy, and molecular analysis. It discusses the significance of early detection, personalized treatment strategies, and the impact of recent advancements in molecular biology and genetics on SPN management. Accurate assessment and timely intervention are essential in improving outcomes for patients with SPNs, as early-stage lung cancer presents a better prognosis compared to advanced disease.
