Patients with traumatic injuries often represent the best hosts for healthcare-associated infections, especially pneumonia or bronchopneumonia. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic raised serious problems in the diagnosis and treatment of patients that had a SARS-CoV-2 infection and associated nosocomial bacterial bronchopneumonia. In forensic medicine, these aspects need to be considered when establishing the cause of death and the distinction between the two types of bronchopneumonia is of particular importance.
We present nine cases that were autopsied at the Institute of Forensic Medicine Timisoara between 1 June 2020 and 31 December 2021, that presented traumatic injuries, a SARS-CoV-2 infection, and bronchopneumonia.
We focused on the main findings of the macroscopic and microscopic aspects of lung tissues.
We consider that the aspects we highlighted in this study, can be very useful in forensic practice in cases with a pluri-factorial pathology.
创伤患者往往是医疗相关感染的最佳宿主，尤其是肺炎或支气管肺炎。严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2（SARS-CoV-2）大流行给感染SARS-CoV-2并伴有医院获得性细菌性支气管肺炎的患者的诊断和治疗带来了严重问题。在法医学中，在确定死因时需要考虑这些方面，区分这两种类型的支气管肺炎尤为重要。
我们呈现了2020年6月1日至2021年12月31日期间在蒂米什瓦拉法医学研究所进行尸检的9例病例，这些病例存在创伤、SARS-CoV-2感染和支气管肺炎。
我们重点关注了肺组织宏观和微观方面的主要发现。
我们认为本研究中突出的这些方面在多因素病理学病例的法医实践中可能非常有用。
