Pityriasis rubra pilaris‐like eruption following administration of the BNT163b2 (Pfizer–BioNTech) mRNA COVID‐19 vaccine

Abstract: We describe a case of a pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP)‐like eruption occurring following administration of the Pfizer–Biontech mRNA COVID‐19 vaccine, with worsening of the condition following the second dose. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a PRP‐like eruption as a cutaneous adverse event of the Pfizer–Biontech mRNA COVID‐19 vaccine.
