case_images: A repeat chest radiograph revealed acute wide spread pulmonary infiltrates, which represented a significant change from the prior study (Figure 1).
case_images: High resolution CT of the chest showed diffuse ground glass opacities mainly involving the upper lobes.

case_images: High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest revealed diffuse ground glass opacities throughout the lung fields, with bilateral traction bronchiectasis (Figure 2).
case_images: Histopathology showed diffuse alveolar damage pattern-mixed exudative and organizing phase, as demonstrated by video-assisted thoracostomy lung biopsy: showing interstitial edema and hemorrhage (A), diffuse alveolar wall thickening by proliferating connective tissue, formation of hyaline membranes, (B) and type II pneumocyte hyperplasia (C), (hematoxylin- eosin stain) (original x 100).

case_images: The lungs revealed diffuse alveolar wall thickening with proliferating connective tissue, formation of hyaline membranes, and type II pneumocyte hyperplasia (Figure 3) compatible with DAD pattern: mixed exudative and organizing phase.
