Abstract
Ebola virus disease is a severe, often fatal illness, with a case fatality rate of up to 90%. It is one of the world's most virulent diseases. The infection is transmitted by direct contact with the blood, body fluids, and tissues of infected animals or people. Specific guidelines for processing biopsies from Ebola patients for histopathology are not readily apparent but clues are present in the literature. A rationale for safe handling of specimens is given.
