He did not complain of any symptoms with resolution of air-fluid level in chest radiograph in outpatient clinic follow-up at the first and third week from the time of injury. Chest CT at the eighth week showed complete resolution of bilateral lung cysts. He is doing well without any complication until the last follow-up day.
