case_images: The chest high-resolution computed tomography and pathology of bronchoscopy biopsy. (A-C) The chest high-resolution computed tomography at onset indicated irregular nodular opacities in the upper and lower lobe of the right lung and the middle lobe of left lung (Red arrows). (D-F) The chest high-resolution computed tomography after 1-week antibiotic therapy indicated expanded lesions (Red arrows). (G-I) The chest high-resolution computed tomography at 2-month follow-up showed complete resolution of previous lung lesions (Red arrows). (J-L) The pathology of bronchoscopy biopsy showed intra-alveolar fibroinflammatory buds (Red arrows, J), in the form of Masson's bodies (Red arrows, K, L).

case_images: High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) indicated irregular nodular opacitie in the upper lobe and lower lobe of the right lung and the middle lobe of left lung (Figures 1A-C). The lesions on chest HRCT expanded gradually (Figures 1D-F). The pathology of bronchoscopy biopsy showed preservation of the lung architecture with a patchy distribution of intra-alveolar fibroinflammatory buds, in the form of Masson's bodies (Figures 1J-L). The chest HRCT showed no evidence of thymoma and complete resolution of previous lung lesions (Figures 1G-I).
