This article reports a clinical and histopathological perspective which noted not only COVID‐19 pneumonia but also exacerbation of chronic renal failure potentially caused by thrombus in the kidney, possibly COVID‐19‐related lesions. The accumulation of autopsy cases will elucidate the pathogenesis of COVID‐19 and aid in the development of effective therapeutics.
