Enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the chest and abdomen, which were examined on day 5, did not show any significant signs of inflammation or malignancy (Fig. 1a and b). Urgent enhanced chest CT on day 22 revealed no pulmonary thromboembolism but indicated small-diffused nodules, which were not apparent in previous enhanced CT (Fig. 1c and d).
Computed tomography (CT) (a, c) and fat-suppressed T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (b, d) of the legs. The CT scan revealed soft tissue inflammation in the left leg with no aerogenic findings (a). Left femoral myofascial inflammation was observed on the MRI scan (b).

Lower limb CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on day 7 showed inflammation that was limited to the left fascia and was not intramuscular (Fig. 2a and b). CT and MRI on day 33 showed that the patient's lower limb inflammation had improved (Fig. 2c and d), and her thigh pain was diagnosed as tuberculous fasciitis.
