| Abstract | Coronavirus infection 2019 (COVID-19) primarily has a respiratory system and multi-systemic involvement. Respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms are predominantly seen in children. In adults, few COVID-19 cases are reported with cutaneous manifestations. Although children are less severely affected by COVID-19, there is increasing evidence for skin involvement, which is in the form of chilblain (e.g., lesions, vesicular, and maculopapular) and erythema multiforme (e.g., rash). Also, few COVID-19 cases are presented with a clinical picture of atypical Kawasaki disease and toxic shock syndrome, later defined as pediatric multisystem inflammatory syndrome (PMIS). The present study aims to summarize various skin lesions with COVID-19. | en |
