Chilblain-like lesions likely associated with coronavirus disease 2019: A Canadian case presentation

摘要

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 and has since been declared a global pandemic. While initially thought to be a respiratory illness, it is becoming increasingly apparent how little is known about COVID-19 and its clinical manifestations. Illness from COVID-19 can range from asymptomatic to fatal with the most widely referenced symptoms being fever, dry cough, nasal congestion, fatigue, myalgia, asthenia, anosmia, and diarrhea. Recently, it has been proposed that COVID-19 could be associated with dermatological manifestations. We describe herein the case of a patient who presented to the emergency department (ED) with chilblain-like lesions apparently induced by COVID-19.
