Sickle cell anemia is a chronic hemolytic anemia with vasoocclusive crisis and is the most common symptomatic event that causes tissue hypoxia in many systems. Pulmonary crisis
is one of them and its the major cause of mortality and morbidity in sickle cell anemia. Furthermore, pulmonary crisis is the second clinical situation for hospitalization. Pneumoia must be thought in differential diagnosis and is too difficult to rule out. Two cases with pulmonary crises with sickle cell anemia were presented with up to date knowledge. Keywords: Acut chest syndrome, sickle cell anemia
