Clinical manifestations associated with covid-19 seem to be not limited to the lungs and widen to affect several organs including skin. Through two cases well documented, we report cutaneous manifestations strongly suggestive of Covid-19 which dermatologists are beginning to report worldwide and which we proposed to call them polymorphous acral eruption.

Myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcoma (MIFS) is a rare soft tissue tumor with a predilection for the distal extremities and a tendency for local recurrence. Morphologically, MIFS consists of spindle and bizarre epithelioid cells resembling virocytes embedded in a fibrous to myxoid stroma with an abundant inflammatory infiltrate. Importantly, the molecular landscape of MIFS is wide and includes: VGLL3 amplification, BRAF fusion/amplification and OGA/TGFBR3 rearrangements.

Background: Papular-purpuric gloves-and-socks syndrome, characterized by focal acral purpuric eruptions with a symmetrical distribution, is a rare but representative purpuric dermatosis closely associated with parvovirus B19 (PVB19) infection. However, several atypical presentations such as involvement of other sites and generalized involvement have been recently reported in PVB19 infected patients. Such multifaceted features can cause considerable confusion when making a diagnosis of purpuric eruption associated with PVB19.
