PATIENT CONCERNS: We present the case of SARS-CoV-2 infection in a previously healthy woman who presented with respiratory symptoms and developed anosmia, diarrhea, and an erythematous maculo-papular rash on day 15 from symptom onset. [6] Pathogenetically, the appearance of cutaneous lesions during the SARS-CoV-2 infection can be explained by an immune response initiated by the viral nucleotides which activate Langerhans cells with the secondary involvement of keratinocytes (maculopapular, urticarial and chicken pox-like rashes), by microthrombi formation and cutaneous vasculopathy (chilblain lesions, livedo reticularis, erythema multiforme-like rash, gangrene), or by reaction to the medication administered (urticaria, erythroderma, erythema multiforme, etc.). [7, 8] We report a case of disseminated exanthema that appeared after 15 days of treatment for SARS-CoV-2 infection in a patient without other medical and dermatological problems in the past. ./cache/cord-263945-yli5suxb.txt ./txt/cord-263945-yli5suxb.txt
