    Abstract:
    A 51-year-old man underwent a middle-lower lobectomy for squamous cell carcinoma on February 8, 1996. In July, 1997, a computed tomography revealed a mass shadow in the right upper lung field. Completion pneumonectomy was performed. Histopathological examination showed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. This case was the shortest time to occurrence of second tumor in our metachronous lung cancer cases. We must always give attention to exist second primary lung cancer and double primary lung cancer after resection of primary lung cancer.
