case_images: Laboratory findings at admission are shown in Table 1 and Figure 1: blood tests showed white blood cells in the normal range, but an elevated neutrophil fraction of 83% and a severely elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) level of 19.97 mg/dL.

case_images: Clinical course is shown in Figure 2.
case_images: Lung CT on day 30 (after extubation).. Ground-glass opacity was observed in both lungs, although lung shadows were getting better than before treatment.

case_images: Lung CT performed after extubation (Figure 3) and at the time of his discharge (Figure 4) showed extensive residual infiltrative shadows.
case_images: Lung CT on day 51 (before discharge).. Ground-glass opacity was still observed in both lungs. However, lung shadows were much better than lung CT of after extubation.
