Figure A, Frontal radiograph of the chest demonstrates multiple hyperdense tubular branching opacities throughout the right lung and in the left lower lung. B, Lateral projection of the chest x-ray demonstrates radiopaque material in 2 thoracic spine vertebrae with extension into the anterior external venous plexus (black arrow) and azygous vein (white arrow) before eventual deposition in the pulmonary vasculature. The images in this report have not been previously published. The American Journal of Medicine 2016 129, e279-e280DOI: (10.1016/j.amjmed.2016.05.025) Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc.
