  Figure 1. Serial plain radiographic images of the chest using different ventilation modes in case 2. (A) Plain chest radiograph on the day of operation. (B) On postoperative day #6, the pneumonia combined with postoperative edema was aggravated. (C) Pneumonia combined with edema improved on a follow-up plain radiograph taken just 6 hours after starting APRV. (D) On postoperative day #12, slightly improvement was noted on the plain chest radiographic image. APRV: airway pressure release ventilation.
