Figures & Tables

Figure 1.

Bedside chest film indicated lucency decline in the left lung. The pulmonary markings in the right lung were vague.

Figure 2.

Thoracic CT indicated that the left lung and the primary bronchus of left lung were not available in pulmonary window. No shadows with aberrant densities were noticed in the right lung (A–C). In addition, there was mediastinal shift to left side in mediastinal window. The structures and boundaries in left mediastinum were not completely displayed (D–F).

Figure 3.

Three-dimentional imaging indicated that trachea, right principal bronchus and three bronchus reached the three lobes of the right lung. The left lung and left principal bronchus were not available.

Figure 4.

Pulmonary function test indicated that the patient was considered to present obstructive ventilation dysfunction. The tidal volume was normal (7.2 ml/kg). Time to peak tidal expiratory flow as a proportion of expiratory time [TPTEF/TE(%)] was 20.4% (normal range: 28%–55%), and volume to peak expiratory flow as a proportion of exhaled volume [VPEF/VE (%)] was 22% (normal range: 28%–55%).
