Fig. 1. Clinical and laboratory course of this case during hospitalization. The patient developed high fever at the second day of hospitalization (A). Chest computed tomography showed a 2.8 cm low attenuating mass (indicated with arrowheads) with internal punctate calcification in the left lower lobe at that day (B, middle) and 64 days prior to hospitalization (B, upper). The lung mass was not significantly changed at 106 days after discharge (B, lower)
