Fig. 1
SARS-CoV-2-related and SARS-CoV-2-unrelated intervillitis. Intervillous inflammatory component in SARS-CoV-2-infected placentas shows a pattern of perivillitis outlining the villi contour (A) whereas in classical chronic histiocytic intervillitis the inflammation preserves the trophoblast lining (B). CD68 immunohistochemistry, original magnification 10×.

Fig. 2
Comparison between SARS-CoV- 2-related trophoblast necrosis and typical massive fibrin(oid) deposition. Trophoblast necrosis with intervillous space collapse showing crowding of villi (A) versus perivillous fibrin(oid) deposition (B) where villi are separated from each other by the fibrin(oid) deposition resulting in less villi per area. H&E, original magnification 10×.
