Spider’s web sign: Budd-Chiari syndrome

The spider web sign in Covid-19 pneumonia: An interesting case studied to resolution with computed tomography

Since the widespread of acute respiratory syndrome infection caused by Coronavirus-19, unenhanced computed tomography (CT) was considered a useful imaging tool commonly used in early diagnosis and monitoring of patients with complicated Covid-19 pneumonia. Many typical imaging features of this disease were described such as bilateral multilobar ground-glass opacity (GGO) with a prevalent peripheral or posterior distribution, mainly in the lower lobes, and sometimes consolidative opacities superimposed on GGO. As less common findings were mentioned septal thickening, bronchiectasis, pleural thickening, and subpleural involvement. Here we describe the case of a patient, with Covid-19 pneumonia, that had the spider web sign, a triangular or angular GGO in the subpleural lung, documented at CT.
