case_images: A chest CT scan was performed, which showed that the lung fibrosis remained unchanged (Figure 3). However, after the 4-year follow-up, the patient experienced a sudden and rapid deterioration in lung infiltration and exhibited pulmonary hemorrhage (PH) along with a progressively lower hemoglobin (Figure 3).
