Overview

X-ray

Capillary leak syndrome may result in noncardiogenic pulmonary edema, which is characterized by the presence of ground-glass opacities and consolidations with air bronchograms. Features which may be used to assess pulmonary edema on chest radiograph include: 1) Upper lobe pulmonary venous diversion (stag's antler sign) 2) Increased size of cardiothoracic ratio. 3) Peribronchial cuffing and perihilar haze. 4) Air space opacification classically in a batwing distribution, and may have air bronchograms.
