Hallazgos pulmonares en un caso de muerte inesperada por infección de COVID-19

The new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus has caused thousands of deaths around the world. Most deaths occur in healthcare facilities. However, an undetermined number of patients die suddenly, unexpectedly in a variety of places and are cases of medical legal interest. We share the findings of the microscopic study of lung samples from a COVID-19 positive patient who died unexpectedly at home in quarantine. Our observations confirm endothelialitis, thrombosis and angiogenesis as microscopic hallmarks of the lung pathology of this new disease. These findings have clinical and therapeutic implications.
