case_images: Before chemotherapy.. Notes: (A) A chest X-ray shows right lower lung consolidation and pleural effusion (black arrow). (B) A chest CT shows a soft tissue mass measured as 98.7x87.4x82.7 mm3 in the right lower lung field (white arrow) with central necrosis and lobulated pleural effusion (white arrow head). (C) A chest CT shows no interstitial lung disease or lymphangitis carcinomatosis.. Abbreviation: CT, computed tomography.

case_images: The chest X-ray (Figure 1A) and chest computed tomography (CT) showed right lower lung tumor and lobulated effusion (Figure 1B), and the lung window showed no interstitial lesion (Figure 1C).
case_images: 3 days later following chemotherapy.. Notes: (A) A chest X-ray shows increased interstitial lung markings bilaterally; the implanted port was placed at the right subclavian vein.

case_images: The chest X-ray revealed diffused interstitial infiltrates (Figure 2A), and chest CT showed diffuse ground glass opacities at bilateral lung fields and nonsegmental predominance of lung opacity without prominent hilum engorgement (Figure 2B).
case_images: After steroid administration.. Notes: (A) A chest X-ray shows no obviously increased lung marking, and the implanted port was placed at the right subclavian vein. (B) The repeated chest CT shows marked improvement in ground glass opacity.. Abbreviations: CT, computed tomography; L, left side.
