Abstract

The cutaneous manifestations associated with COVID-19 are increasingly reported, their exact incidence remains to be estimated, their pathophysiological mechanisms are largely unknown and the role, direct or indirect, of SARS-CoV-2 in their pathogenesis is still debated. We present a case of COVID-19 that manifested with a purpuric vasculitis pattern on the lower extremities and chilblain-like lesion in toe in a patient presented COVID-19 lungs involvement with polymerase chain reaction and serology are negatives. The reported presenting dermatological symptoms: associated chilblain-like lesions and vasculitis pattern of patient with negative COVID-19 RT-PCR and serology. The polymorphism of cutaneous lesions associated with the COVID-19 infection can mimic or appear similar to other well-known conditions. Even though, RT- PCR and serology are negatives, an infection of SARS-CoV-2 should be considerate.
