A 82-year-old man with COVID-19, admitted for fever and chest pain. (a) Posteroanterior chest radiograph, (b) coronal chest CT with soft windows, and (c) coronal chest CT with lung windows demonstrate a triangular-shaped consolidation (arrowheads) in the middle lobe and a filling defect (arrow in b) of the corresponding segmental branch of the pulmonary artery, indicating a thrombus. These findings are consistent with lung infarction as a complication of pulmonary embolism. Pleural effusion is also identified.
