case_images: Chest X-ray on admission showed left upper lobe round infiltrate (Figure 1).
case_images: Computed tomography scan of chest showing left upper lobe lung lesion with cavitations, along with diffuse bilateral ground glass opacification.. Notes: The arrow indicate the cavitary lesion in the lung. The inset shows that the cavitary lesion in lung is on that level on coronal view.

case_images: A repeat chest X-ray showed expanding left upper lobe lesion, while computed tomography scan of chest (Figure 2) done at that time showed a left upper lobe lung lesion with cavitations, along with diffuse bilateral ground glass opacification.

case_images: Microscopically, the fungi displayed broad-based pauci-septate hyphae with dichotomous wide-angle branching in the left upper lobe hemorrhagic lesion and surrounding lung parenchyma, as well as in the pleura (Figure 3).
