Abstract

COVID19 became pandemic since this is a disease with a high infection rate. The study's object is to identify clinical and histopathological findings of cutaneous manifestations of COVID19 patients. The evidence was analyzed in PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane, Web of Science and Scopus, with the search strategy (covid 19 OR covid-19 OR corona OR coronavirus OR sars-cov-2) AND (cutaneous or cutaneous manifestations OR), and 17 studies were included, involving 351 cases with COVID19 and skin manifestations. The lesions were classified mainly as maculopapular, erythematous, vesicular and urticarial. Histopathological analyzes suggest a predominance of spongiosis, perivascular infiltrate of lymphocytes and thrombogenic vasculopathy. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
