          Abstract

          Clinical manifestations associated with covid-19 seem to be not limited to the lungs and widen to affect several organs including skin. Through two cases well documented, we report cutaneous manifestations strongly suggestive of Covid-19 which dermatologists are beginning to report worldwide and which we proposed to call them polymorphous acral eruption.

            COVID-19 pandemic and the skin: what should dermatologists know?

            The world has changed dramatically since the COVID-19 pandemic began. In addition to our social, occupational, and personal lives, the new coronavirus also poses novel challenges for all physicians, including dermatologists. Several skin conditions have emerged, mainly as a result of prolonged contact with personal protective equipment and excessive personal hygiene. Pressure injury, contact dermatitis, itch, pressure urticaria, and exacerbation of preexisting skin diseases, including seborrheic dermatitis and acne, have been described. We have focused on the dermatologic aspects of the COVID-19 infection so that dermatologists are aware of the skin complications and preventive measures can be taken in the COVID-19 pandemic.
