    (2022) MELO, Deborah N.; LIMA, Giovanna R. P.; FERNANDES, Carolina G.; TEIXEIRA, Andre C.; FILHO, Joel B.; ARAUJO, Fernanda M. C.; ARAUJO, Lia C.; SIQUEIRA, Andre M.; FARIAS, Luis A. B. G.; MONTEIRO, Renata A. A.; ORDI, Jaume; MARTINEZ, Miguel J.; SALDIVA, Paulo H. N.; CAVALCANTI, Luciano P. G.
    We report the first pediatric disease in which the use of minimally invasive autopsy (MIA) confirmed severe dengue as the cause of death. During the COVID-19 pandemic, a previously healthy 10-year-old girl living in north-eastern Brazil presented fever, headache, diffuse abdominal pain, diarrhoea, and vomiting. On the fourth day, the clinical symptoms worsened and the patient died. An MIA was performed, and cores of brain, lungs, heart, liver, kidneys, and spleen were collected with 14G biopsy needles. Microscopic examination showed diffuse oedema and congestion, pulmonary intra-alveolar haemorrhage, small foci of midzonal necrosis in the liver, and tubular cell necrosis in the kidneys. Dengue virus RNA and NS1 antigen were detected in blood and cerebrospinal fluid samples. Clinical, pathological, and laboratory findings, in combination with the absence of other lesions and microorganisms, allowed concluding that the patient had died from complications of severe dengue.
