Pleomorphic carcinoma is a rare primary lung cancer with a poor prognosis. We report a surgically treated case of pleomorphic carcinoma of the lung. An abnormal shadow was incidentally detected by computed tomography (CT) scan for an 80-year-old male. CT scan performed 1 month before the detection of tumor was normal. Right upper lobectomy with ND2a was performed after 5 months follow-up by CT scan because of the enlargement of the tumor. Histological examination showed numerous atypical spindle cells with massive necrosis, diagnosing as pleomorphic carcinoma. Only 2 months after operation, multiple metastases to the lung, chest wall, pleura, and small intestine were found.
