The frequency of fatal outcomes was determined in various age groups. The leading morphological manifestations of internal organ lesions were established. Absolute (abs) and relative (%) frequencies were calculated for qualitative variables. The lungs were found to be most susceptible to changes. In 77.8% of cases, pathological changes corresponded to the acute phase of diffuse alveolar damage. In addition to lung damage, the most common sign was the depletion of spleen parenchyma by lymphocytes, indicating an immune inflammatory response of the body.</p> <p><bold>Conclusion:</bold> The identified characteristic morphological signs of alveolar lung damage in COVID-19 can be used as a differential diagnosis of lung damage from shocks of other etiology.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold>Актуальность.</bold> В статье приведены результаты изучения случаев смертельных исходов лиц от новой коронавирусной инфекции по данным судебно-медицинских исследований.</p> <p><bold>Цель исследования</bold> — на основе изучения результатов судебно-медицинского исследования трупов обобщить и выявить закономерности поражения внутренних органов и систем организма в случаях смерти от COVID-19 без оказания медицинской помощи.</p> <p><bold>Результаты. </bold>Изучали 198 случаев смертельных исходов от новой коронавирусной инфекции. Определяли частоту встречаемости смертельных исходов в различных возрастных группах. Устанавливали ведущие морфологические проявления поражений внутренних органов. Для качественных переменных рассчитывали абсолютную (абс.) и относительную (%) частоту. В структуре смертности от COVID-19 вне медицинских организаций доля умерших лиц пожилого (60–80 лет) и старческого (свыше 80 лет) возраста составила 74,2%. Среди внутренних органов наибольшим изменениям подвержены лёгкие: в 77,8% случаев патологические изменения соответствовали острой фазе диффузного альвеолярного повреждения. Обеднение лимфоцитами паренхимы селезёнки свидетельствовало об иммунном воспалительном ответе организма.</p> <p><bold>Заключение.</bold> Выявленные характерные морфологические признаки альвеолярного повреждения лёгких при COVID-19 могут быть использованы в качестве дифференциальной диагностики поражения лёгких от шоков другой этиологии.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>COVID-19</kwd><kwd>forensic examination of the corpse</kwd><kwd>morphological picture</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>COVID-19</kwd><kwd>судебно-медицинское исследование трупа</kwd><kwd>морфологическая картина секционных данных</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) weekly epidemiological update 1 data as received by WHO from national authorities, as of 10am CEST 16 August 2020 [cited 2020 August 17].
