A plain chest radiograph showed right upper lobe and left heart border opacification (Fig. 1A). Chest computerized tomography (CT) (Fig. 1B) revealed pulmonary infiltrates in the right upper lobe and lingula consistent with pneumonia, without definite features of abscess formation, empyema or cavitation. L3/L4 discitis and vertebral osteomyelitis (Fig. 1C). Lumbar spine magnetic resonance imaging confirmed this finding (Fig. 1D).
