cord-280774-r2xm164s	Gallizzi, Romina	Management of pernio‐like cutaneous manifestations in children during the outbreak of covid‐19.	2020-09-19		.txt	text/plain	2083	128	47	The increased number of cases of pernio-like lesions compared to the cases per year we usually observe, the mild temperatures of those months in Southern Italy and the concomitant lockdown, led us to hypothesize a possible correlation with SARS-CoV-2 infection. This is useful to highlight, as in our case, the D-dimer of our patients was weakly increased, a condition perfectly correlated with the mild symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 putative infection presented. In a report of 19 adolescent patients with a clinical diagnosis of pernio-like lesions nasopharyngeal swab and IgG serology for SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein were negative. Why some children who come into contact with the SARS-CoV-2 do not develop striking respiratory symptoms but present pernio-like lesions with negativity on diagnostic tests? This pathogenic mechanism could explain the appearance of pernio-like lesions due to SARS-CoV-2 infection. In conclusion, we think there is a correlation between pernio-like lesions and SARS-CoV-2 infection, but further studies are needed to prove it.	./cache/cord-280774-r2xm164s.txt	./txt/cord-280774-r2xm164s.txt
