Abstract: | Autopsy was performed on a COVID‐19 patient, who suddenly died despite the extensive anti‐viral and anti‐inflammatory therapies. Although moderate subpleural fibrosis was seen, pathology of DAD, a well‐known cause for pulmonary failure, was minimum. Instead, severe hemorrhage was observed. Therapeutic effects were indicated; however, why severe hemorrhage occurred was unclear. |
