Radiographic findings from 25-year-old Hispanic man from New Mexico, USA (case 5), in multicentric case series of coccidioidal otomastoiditis. A) Computed tomography scan of the chest with contrast, showing septic emboli of the left lower lung lobe and lingula with developing pneumonia. B) Magnetic resonance venogram, showing stable thrombus of the right jugular bulb, right sigmoid and transverse sinuses, and partially occlusive thrombus in the anterior superior sagittal sinus, seen by lack of enhancement (arrows) compared with the left side.
