Key message Pulmonary veno‐occlusive disease (PVOD) is an extremely rare cause of pulmonary hypertension. Previously reported computed tomography (CT) findings of PVOD included centrilobular ground‐glass opacities, a mosaic pattern, and septal lines; however, chest CT revealing pulmonary consolidation disappearance with repositioning has not been reported.
