Abstract
A rare case of double Pancoast tumor in a patient with metachronous primary cancer of the lung was treated with irradiation and operation. Both tumors were managed with pulmonary wedge resection and excision of involved chest wall. Six years after the first operation the patient is doing well without pain and respiratory failure.
