Microscopic analysis of muscle biopsy of the patient suffering rhabdomyolysis
associated with SARS-Co-2 infection. (a) Striated muscle tissue with spots of cytolysis
and no signs of apoptosis of the muscle fibers (hematoxylin-eosin stain). (b) Negative
stain with anti-SARS Nucleocapsid Protein (polyclonal antibody NB100-56576,
immunohistochemistry).

T-lymphocytes, and no signs of apoptosis (Figure 1(a)). These results were consistent with rhabdomyolysis. Both real-time reverse transcription PCR and immunohistochemistry techniques on paraffin-embedded tissue for viral myositis (Figure 1(b)), were negative.
