Figure 1 Chest X-ray of patient. A: Chest X-ray findings on admission, increased texture in both lungs and hyperdense shadows in both lungs with an unclear border; B: Chest radiograph results at intensive care unit, bilateral lung exudation increased compared with the previous one, complicated by pneumothorax; C: Chest X-ray images at discharge. The exudate was partially absorbed in both lungs.

Figure 2 Chest computed tomography scans of patient. A: Computed tomography (CT) images on admission, diffuse stripes and cords in both lungs with increased density and fuzzy edges; B: CT results in the intensive care unit, consolidation, aerothorax and ground-glass opacities in both lungs; C: CT findings at discharge, the marked resolution of ground-glass opacities and consolidation.
