A Rapidly Progressive Case of Skin and Soft Tissues Necrosis in a COVID-19 Positive Patient

Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Immunology & Microbiology - Year 2022, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

Sars-Cov2 infection can result in numerous and varied skin manifestations including vasculopathy, bullous lesions and rarely necrotic lesions. At present, the aetiopathogenetic mechanism is still unclear. We report a case of a 68-year-old patient with acute onset of bullous and necrotic lesions with rapid progression to osteomyelitis, suffering from mild Sars-Cov2 infection.
