Abstract

The SARS-Cov-2 virus from the betacoronavirus family, which emerged in the Wuhan region of China in December 2019, spread to the world in a short time, causing the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition to serious respiratory symptoms, Covid-19 progresses with different symptoms in many systems. Covid-19-related dermatological manifestations are being reported with increasing frequency, either in the early phase of the disease or in late-onset. This case report, it is aimed to share our experience in our 68-year-old male patient who had late-onset vasculitic eruptions during the recovery process and was later accepted as excites, while he was being followed up in the intensive care unit due to severe Covid-19 pneumonia-ARDS.
