High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest was unrevealing (Figure 1a). Chest X-ray revealed small pneumomediastinum. Chest HRCT showed small pneumomediastinum and diffuse ground-glass opacities (Figure 1b). Clinical examination revealed worsening opacities, signs of fibrotic changes, and pleural effusion on chest HRCT (Figure 1c). A chest HRCT scan revealed significant improvement, with almost complete resolution of pulmonary opacities (Figure 1d).
