“…Recognition of cutaneous manifestations of COVID-19 in the pediatric population is important for guiding precautions, testing, and management of patients and close contacts. While some dermatologic signs in children overlap with those in adults, other skin findings are reported with greater frequency in children and may be clues to multisystem sequelae [10].…”

Children are a unique subgroup of patients in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic, often presenting asymptomatically, mildly or atypically. Initial reports did not include skin manifestations as a feature of COVID-19, however, there is a growing repertoire of reports showing a range of dermatologic skin manifestations in children. Six clinical skin manifestations have been described: urticaria, maculo-papular rash, morbilliform eruption, vesicular rash, lividor-reticular and multiform rash.Dermatological features occur before or simultaneously with other manifestations of COVID-19. Doctors play a key role in diagnosing patients with COVID-19 who may present for the first time unknowingly showing early signs of the disease. In this report are presented 4 patients with Covid 19 infection, where the skin is the target organ of the virus.In all children, the skin manifestation is different, their markers of inflammation are different and the treatment is not the same. In patient number 1, we look at the benefit of immunoglobulins in viral infections and consider their use in COVID-19 infection.Skin changes should never be ignored. The rash can spread and lead to a severe form of the disease. Skin manifestations may be the primary [or only] manifestation of a sign. It is extremely important to recognize it in time and to treat it accordingly.

“…Although there is overlap in the cutaneous manifestations between adult and pediatric populations, 7 the most notable cutaneous abnormalities in pediatric COVID-19 patients relate to MIS-C. Reported fi ndings in this syndrome include a nonexudative conjunctivitis, polymorphic rash, oral mucositis, hand and foot anomalies, and perineal and facial desquamation (Figures 1 and 2). [35][36][37] These manifestations suggest that MIS-C shares many similarities with Kawasaki disease. However, children with MIS-C tend to be older, with higher rates of gastrointestinal symptoms, myocarditis, and shock than in classic Kawasaki disease.…”

Cutaneous abnormalities were among the fi rst clinical fi ndings reported in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, but the signifi cance was initially unclear. Correlations have since been drawn between many of these cutaneous eruptions and their diagnostic or prognostic value. Additionally, COVID-19 vaccines have generated acute and delayed cutaneous reactions with which clinicians should be familiar. In this narrative review, we update the cutaneous abnormalities associated with COVID-19 infection for pediatric and non-White populations, and common cutaneous reactions to COVID-19 vaccines. KEY POINTSThere has been an increase in cutaneous manifestations together with and following COVID-19 infection and messenger RNA vaccination, respectively. Unique manifestations have been described in children, including erythema multiforme, acute hemorrhagic edema of infancy, papular acrodermatitis of childhood, and various skin changes in multisystem infl ammatory syndrome in children.Adenoviral vector vaccine appears to result in vaccineinduced thrombotic thrombocytopenia in some patients.

Viruses can cause disease in the skin or mucosa by direct infection or, via a systemic infection, produce secondary skin abnormalities. The chapter reviews the viruses associated with skin lesions, outlining the pathophysiology, the clinical features, diagnostic methods and the approaches to treatment. Primary skin infection following direct contact occurs with poxviruses, some herpesviruses and papillomaviruses leading to visible features which may be readily diagnostic. Less specific skin changes are seen with systemic infections, when infection is often via mucosae or inoculation, for example with parvovirus, measles or coronavirus and for these infections, diagnosis will usually involve body fluid analysis.
