Since its appearance in Wuhan, China, and after more than two years after being declared a pandemic, COVID-19 has caused more than five million deaths in the world. It is widely known that it not only affects the respiratory system, but also has digestive, cardiovascular, endocrine-metabolic, neurological, renal and skin manifestations. The dermatological spectrum that is related to COVID-19 has been defined in five main groups of manifestations: maculopapular lesions, acral lesions, urticarial pattern, vesicular pattern and livedoid or necrotic lesions, according to their frequency of appearance. A case is described with the presence of urticarial rash as the only symptom reported in a patient diagnosed with COVID-19.

Palabras clave : COVID-19; coronavirus; urticaria; skin manifestations.
