Figure 1. In A, clinical photograph showing palpable purpuric lesions in the lower extremities. In B, non-contrast-enhanced chest CT showing bilateral peribronchovascular consolidations with a surrounding halo of ground-glass opacity. In C, contrast-enhanced chest CT evidenced central cavitation and hypoenhancement within the pulmonary consolidations, suggestive of intralesional necrosis. In D, coronal non-contrast-enhanced chest CT with minimum intensity projection showing progression of the peribronchial lesions, most of which cavitated.
