A chest computed tomography (CT) demonstrated ground-glass opacities, peripheral cysts, and aortic wall thickening, as well as non-specific vertebral sclerosis and kidneys with "hairy" appearance (Fig. 1, Fig. 2). A CT scan of the chest was repeated approximately 6 months following initiation of therapy, and demonstrated improved, albeit persistent radiologic evidence of pulmonary involvement (Fig. 1).
