Autopsy Findings in 32 Patients with COVID-19: A Single-Institution Experience 2020-09-17 .txt text/plain 4600 269 49 METHODS: We report the clinicopathologic findings from 32 autopsy studies conducted on patients who died of COVID-19 including routine gross and microscopic examination with applicable special and immunohistochemical staining techniques. The purpose of this study is to describe clinical and pathologic findings in major organ systems of patients who died from SARS-CoV-2 infection. In this study, we described the unique and multisystem clinical and pathologic findings in 32 autopsies of patients who died from the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. On histologic examination, we observed findings secondary to the patients' preexisting conditions in the heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys, as well as changes secondary to SARS-CoV-2 infection such as various stages of DAD and multiple thromboemboli in large and small vessels in multiple organs. While the lung findings are most significant for the majority of those infected, other organ systems are frequently involved including with widespread microscopic thromboses in numerous organs, as well as liver, kidney, and lymph node pathology. ./cache/cord-260180-kojb8efv.txt ./txt/cord-260180-kojb8efv.txt
