case_images: Chest computed tomography images of the patient before and after wedge resection of the lung lesions. Representative axial (A) and coronal (B) CT scan images revealed a large nodular lesion (32.02 mm x 24.77 mm x 42.73 mm) with a faint surrounding vitreous subpleural located in the right upper lobe. The chest CT scans show no new lung lesions 5 months after the wedge resection (C).

case_images: A chest CT was performed, and a large nodular lesion (32.02 mm x 24.77 mm x 42.73 mm) with a faint surrounding vitreous subpleural of the right upper lobe was observed (Figure 1A and B). Chest CT scans showed no new lung lesions 5 months after the wedge resection surgery (Figure 1C).
case_images: Histology analysis of the lung sections after the wedge resection surgery. Septate hyphae were observed by Wright-Giemsa (A) and hexamine-silver (B) staining of lung sections, indicating C. cinerea infection.

case_images: This was later confirmed when septate hyphae were observed by both Wright-Giemsa and hexamine-silver staining of lung sections, indicative of C. cinerea infection (Figure 2).
