The analysis of the condition of the internal organs in 17 patients with acute leukemia who died before treatment and at various stages of the antitumor cytostatic treatment was performed. In those cases when patients died before the start of cytostatic treatment, almost all internal organs had a specific lesion of blast cells, which was the cause of death in these patients. In patients who died in a state of myelotoxic aplasia of hematopoiesis, the cause of death was gross dystrophic changes in the internal organs, which led to multiple organ failure due to resistant sepsis.

The results of the analysis of case histories of 100 deceased patients (55 women and 45 men), whose cause of death was the syndrome of multiple organ failure due to COVID-19, are presented. The case histories of patients who had no previous renal dysfunction were selected for the analysis. The average age of the patients was 76 years. At the terminal stage of the disease, microhematuria was detected in 27 patients, hypercreatininemia was noted in 17 patients, while the creatinine content in the blood did not exceed 437 mol / L in any of 100 patients. Oliguria was observed in 9 patients, polyuria in 43 patients. A possible cause of kidney damage is the damaging effect of SARS-CoV-2 on the proximal convoluted tubules of the nephron. At the same time, in no patient with a severe course of COVID-19, kidney damage did not determine the severity of the condition and was not the cause of death.

One of the most serious problems of modern medicine is sepsis. The number of patients undergoing this complication is 20–30 million (WHO) annually and has no tendency to decrease. Sepsis is characterized by severe multiple organ failure due to a violation of the response of the macroorganism to an infectious agent. Moreover, it is dangerous with high mortality. Sepsis often develops in patients with immunodeficiency conditions, which primarily include pregnant women. The article presents a clinical observation of a case of periostitis in a pregnant woman complicated by a septic state.
