Özet
PurposeThe pathophysiology of COVID-19 remains unclear. Olfactory dysfunction is one of the neurological symptoms of the disease. There is no evidence to evaluate whether there is a morphometric change in the olfactory pathways. This study aimed to examine the effect of COVID-19 on olfactory center sections through morphometric measurements obtained from autopsy cases.MethodsOur study was conducted on 63 autopsy cases (COVID-19 [n = 37], control (non-COVID) [n = 26]) between the ages of 18–80 years who came to Tokat Forensic Medicine Institute. The anatomical structures of the olfactory tracts were determined on the brains removed during routine autopsy. The dimensions of the structures belonging to the olfactory center sections were measured with a precision digital caliper, weights were measured with a precision digital scale, and volumes were measured with a 0.01 cm³ graduated …
