Figure 2: — Typical chest computed tomography manifestations at different time points. Day 21, pneumothorax was found on the left side with a subpleural giant bulla (A), which was completely absorbed on day 92 (B). Day 21, a subpleural hypodense line (B, black arrows) was noticed in the right upper lung attaching to a branch of a peripheral bronchus (C, white arrowhead) surrounded with consolidation; day 24, the previous subpleural hypodense line became a localized pneumothorax (D, black arrow); day 92, the localized pneumothorax was completely absorbed (E). All images have the same window level of −600 and window width of 1600.
