The keywords for searching were "lung," " pulmonary," and CoVs, ie, "severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 [SARS-CoV-2])," "coronavirus disease (COVID-19)," "pathology," "biopsy," "autopsy," "histopathology," "severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)," and "Middle East Respiratory syndrome (MERS)." Histological examination of lung in rare cases reported from SARS-CoV-2 showed "edema, bilateral diffuse alveolar damage with cellular fibromyxoid exudates, desquamation of pneumocytes and hyaline membrane formation," indicating acute respiratory distress syndrome. 19 One histopathologic finding in the new SARS-CoV-2infected lung disease that has not been reported in the previous epidemics of coronaviruses is the presence of pulmonary fibrosis that can be indicative of future pulmonary dysfunction if the patient recovers.
