РЕЗЮМЕ

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a well-recognized clinical problem first described in the late sixties. However,its relevance seems to have increased since the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov-2) outbreak,as 14% (CI 95% 2% to 59%) of patients admitted to the hospital present with this syndrome.Conceptually, a syndrome is a group of symptoms and signs that correspond to several diseases. Although defining diseaseis much harder than may appear at first glance, we can view it as the association between a syndrome and a pathologypattern. Diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) is the morphological hallmark of ARDS, although studies performed inautopsies and patients have demonstrated that it is present in only half of ARDS patients. The SARS-CoV-2 outbreak andthe high incidence of ARDS associated with this infection have triggered a natural question: is the lung pathology similarin patients with ARDS associated with traditional risk factors than to SARS-CoV-2 infection?This review aims to analyze the lung pathology results of patients infected with the novel SARS-Cov-2. As this article targetsnon-intensive care physicians, we will first describe the main characteristics of the novel SARS-Cov-2 and the ARDSdefinition, and then the lung pathology results from the UCI in this group of patients.
