A 56-year-old woman, with personal history of lichen planus 7 years prior that had been successfully treated with topical therapy, was referred to our dermatology outpatient unit from a primary care center. She complained of pruritic lesions that had appeared 48 hours after the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine (Comirnaty, Pfizer-BioNTech). The lesions had developed in the ankles and subsequently extended to the flexural wrist and forearms, periumbilical area, mammary and axillary folds.
