Descripción
Sumario:The difficulties involved in performing autopsies of patients who had died due to COVID-19 required the use of alternative methods in order to obtain tissue samples of affected organs. We describe the technique of core needle aspiration, without ultrasonographic guidance, which we used in 19 cadavers and which produced a high yield in lungs, heart (> 94%) and liver (> 89%), thus enabling the study of the morphological changes produced by SARS-CoV-2.
