From: Predicting lung fibrosis in post-COVID-19 patients after discharge with follow-up chest CT findings
Forty-three-year-old male, he has no past medical illness; peak CT severity score 18; consolidation/crazy-paving score 14. He was admitted to the ICU; laboratory results showed lymphopenia, high CRP, d-dimer, and serum ferritin. Steroid was given; length of stay during hospitalization is 65 days. CT after 3 weeks of admission (a–d) showed bilateral GGO with bilateral upper lobe fibrotic bands (arrows) and traction bronchiectasis (orange arrows). Follow-up CT 2 months after discharge (e–h) showed lung fibrosis with parenchymal bands, coarse reticular pattern (arrows), and mild traction bronchiectasis at the anterior segments of both upper lobes (orange arrows).
