Abstract

The current case is a 102-year-old female centenarian with slight bronchopneumonia. She did not have any remarkable health or medical problems until 2022. In May 2023, she developed a cough and fever and underwent a lung CT scan, which revealed a consolidation shadow in the left posterior middle lung. This image was created with a 1mm width for each 1mm interval. Additionally, a further image was generated using maximum intensity projection (MIP) with a 3mm width for a slab thickness of 20mm. Based on this data, a diagnosis of slight bronchopneumonia in the left lung was made. She was treated with levofloxacin 500mg/day for 5 days, which led to clinical improvement.
