    Abstract"COVID toes" are a new phenomenon of pernio-like lesions that has been associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. As dermatology practices reopen and increase patient volumes amid the waning of the coronavirus pandemic, it is important to consider the finding of pernio and pernio-like lesions in the context of both COVID-19 and its other possible etiologies. This contribution will discuss possible causes of pernio and pernio-like lesions and offer suggestions for appropriate diagnostic workup and management when indicated.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
