The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the severity of fibrosis in the lung tissue and EGFR positivity in patients who died due to covid-19 pneumonia, with the demographic characteristics, comorbidities, biochemistry values, treatments they received, and radiological appearances. Transthoracic tru-cut biopsy will be performed on patients who have died in the intensive care unit with the diagnosis of Covid 19 pneumonia. EGFR positivity will be evaluated in the material taken. The relationship between the severity of fibrosis and the demographic data of the patients, the drugs used and their radiological appearances will be analyzed statistically.
