Coronavirus Disease 2019 (Covid-19), caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is recognized as a worldwide public health crisis. It has rapidly spread from Wuhan City in China after an outbreak of flu-like illness. Respiratory symptoms remain the most common manifestation of Covid-19. However, dermatologic manifestations have been observed in patients with COVID-19 infection. Kulkharni, et al. published a case report of morbilliform rashes as a probable herald of Covid-19 being its initial and only manifestation of COVID-19.1 This is a case of a 45-year-old female who presented with worsening morbilliform rashes on both upper extremities and was initially diagnosed with allergic contact dermatitis. She had no respiratory symptoms and was eventually diagnosed with Covid-19 in a routine Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction test (RT-PCR). She was subsequently admitted for treatment and recovered after 2 weeks of hospital stay.

As anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNFalpha) agents are progressively being used in various medical conditions, dermatological adverse events have been encountered more frequently. To understand such dermatological conditions that have been documented while undergoing anti-TNF therapy, we reviewed relevant literature, including case reports and case series. Reported dermatological conditions included infusion and injection site reaction, cutaneous infection, psoriasiform eruption, dermatitis, allergic rash, lupus-like lesion, vasculitis, lichenoid reaction, granulomatous reaction, hair loss, cutaneous infection, and cutaneous neoplasm. These events had varying strengths of causal association and severity therefore, drug discontinuation may or may not be required.

Summary Cutaneous manifestations of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) are variable. We present a case of non-drug related symmetrical flexural and intertriginous exanthema in a patient with COVID-19 infection. A 58-year-old Chinese male who was diagnosed to have COVID-19 infection, developed maculopapular erythematous rashes at bilateral axillary and inguinal folds on the fourth day of illness. He was treated symptomatically with anti-histamine and topical corticosteroid. The skin condition improved and he was discharged well on tenth day of illness. Although symmetrical flexural intertriginous exanthema isclassically caused by drug reaction, this case demonstrated the possibility of the rash being directly associated with COVID-19 infection. More cohorts should be evaluated to fully describe the full spectrum of dermatological manifestation in COVID-19.

Segmental zoster paresis is characterized by skin rash, sensory change and motor weakness in the myotome that corresponds to the dermatome of the rash. Herpes zoster induced pure motor paresis is a rare complication of herpes zoster without sensory involvement in brachial plexopathy. We present a case of segmental paresis, which involved motor nerve without sensory nerve involvement electrophysiologically.

Hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) is an infectious viral disease that is common among children. It is clinically characterized by vesicular eruptions on the palms and soles and a maculopapular rash. Onychomadesis is a periodic idiopathic shedding of the nails at their proximal ends and results from arrest of the proliferative function of the nail matrix. Recently, a few reports described onychomadesis following HFMD, although the mechanism remains unclear. To our knowledge, this association has not been reported in Korea. Herein, we report two cases of onychomadesis following HFMD and review the published data.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the clinical effect of bucillamine in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), we performed an open clinical trial for 3 months. METHODS: 10 out of 12 patients completed bucillamine trial(200mg/day) for their initial treatment against arthritis, and 9 out of 11 patients with refractory RA completed the bucillamine trial. Disease activity was assessed by the duration of morning stiffness(MS), visual analogue pain scale(VAPS), functional capacity(FC), tender joint counts(TJC), swollen joint counts(SJC), ESR, and CRP every month. Adverse effects were monitored monthly. RESULTS: At the end of trial, all parameters were decreased in the initial treatment group except of CRP. No parameters were decreased in the refractory group. Gastrointestinal disturbance was the most commmon adverse effect. Skin rash, stomatitis, proteiuria and elevated hepatic enzyme were minor adverse effects. CONCLUSION: Bucillamine was effective in the initial treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, but not effective in the patients with refractory rheumatoid arthritis. Bucillamine is relatively safe in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in both groups.
