Randomized trial finds critical radiologic-pathologic correlations in SFTS, indicating implications for treatment.

To investigate the radiologic-pathologic correlation of pulmonary involvement in severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS).
Reported an autopsy-proven case of SFTS in a 79-year-old man
Utilized serial chest computed tomography (CT) for imaging
Performed immunohistochemical staining on lung tissue samples.
Initial CT showed subtle peripheral ground-glass opacities that expanded over time.
Final CT demonstrated extensive bilateral consolidation, indicative of pulmonary hemorrhage.
Autopsy revealed diffuse pulmonary hemorrhage and numerous SFTS virus-infected cells in lung tissue.

Sato et al. (2026) studied this question.
