RESULTS: Ground glass opacities, consolidations, and the combination of both were associated with the acute phase, whereas persistence or worsening of the lesions, lesion improvement, and air trapping in the end expiration series (as seen using HRCT, n=6) were observed in the late phase. In this study, the findings were divided according to the acute and late (10 days to 4 months after first onset of respiratory symptoms) phases of the disease, in patients with persistent pulmonary complaints. The images obtained in our study in patients with influenza A (H1N1) pneumonia included areas of consolidation and/or ground glass opacities, unilateral or bilateral findings, and predominated at the periphery of the lungs. ./cache/cord-270763-idkylpb6.txt ./txt/cord-270763-idkylpb6.txt
