We reported 2 cases of acute pulmonary embolism after resection for lung cancer. A 47-year-old male was admitted to our hospital with ground-glass opacity (GGO) on a chest computed tomography (CT). We performed a right upper lobectomy and node dissection (ND) 2a dissection. Two days after the operation, he developed hypotension and hypoxemia. He was diagnosed as acute pulmonary embolism by chest CT and lung scintigram. A 68-year-old women was performed right S6 segmentectomy for lung cancer. The next day, she complained of sudden chest discomfort and dyspnea. She was diagnosed as acute pulmonary embolism by chest CT. Immediately, we started anticoagration therapy with heparin and their condition were improved. It was very important to early diagnose and start anticoagration therapy immediately for acute pulumonary embolism.
