FIGURE 1 Extensive fibrobullous lesions in both upper zones, unchanged in appearance since 1980–1981 films. Localized honeycomb pattern with patchy shadowing and a small, dense opacity are seen in the left lower zone, along with obliteration of the left costophrenic angle, which had not been present in 1981.

FIGURE 2 Chest radiographic appearance had worsened, showing a dense, irregular opacity measuring approximately 3 × 2 cm in the left lower zone with associated pleural reaction.

FIGURE 3 Complete regression of the opacity in the left lower zone, as well as some clearing of the upper zone lesions, which had changed to a more fibrocalcific pattern.
