A Child with Severe COVID-19 Complicated with Onychomadesis

Abstract

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 infection are fever and cough; but may cause respiratory, enteric, hepatic, nephrotic, neurological, and skin involvement. Onychomadesis is the proximal separation of the nail plate from the nail matrix due to a temporary cessation of nail growth. Numerous studies about cutaneous manifestations of COVID-19 were reported; however findings of nails were limited. This paper reported a case of onychomadesis which appeared on the nails after a severe COVID-19 infection (MIS-C).
