The occurrence of air embolism during neurosurgical operations in sitting position is described in two cases. Besides the Doppler ultrasound evidence, relevant effects on the cardiopulmonary situation during surgery were observed, which in one case forced an early end of the operation. Postoperative management in both cases was complicated by a pulmonary oedema. In severe intraoperative cardiopulmonary complications in connection with venous air embolism, the existence of pulmonary oedema should be assumed. Confirmation of the diagnosis and the correct therapy depend upon frequent postoperative chest X-rays.
