Glucocorticoid pulse therapy in an elderly patient with post-COVID-19 organizing pneumonia: A case report

Figure 2 Serial chest computed tomography images in time of coronavirus disease 2019, HD 2, HD 12, and 9 mo after discharge. A and B: Chest computed tomography (CT) scans performed at the time of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (6 wk prior to admission) show peribronchovascular distributed consolidations in both lungs, with greater extent in left lung; this is consistent with COVID-19 pneumonia; C and D: Chest CT scans performed on admission show diffuse ground-glass opacities and patchy consolidations in both lungs and small to moderate amount of bilateral pleural effusions; E and F: Follow-up low-dose chest CT scans after steroid pulse therapy show decreased extent and density of bilateral parenchymal opacifications and more progressed bronchial dilatation; G and H: Follow-up chest CT scans after discharge show almost resolution of bilateral lung disease with mild residual ground-glass opacities in peripheral lungs.
