ABSTRACT
Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) is a chronic relapsing disease that involves the apocrine gland-bearing skin. It results in sinus tract formation, fibrosis and scarring. Many different treatments for HS have been reported, including topical and systemic antibiotics, intralesional steroids, systemic retinoids, hormonal therapies and immnunosuppressive agents, but they all have limited beneficial effects. Surgical treatments, including wide exteriorization with secondary intention, a skin graft and a flap can be effective treatments for recalcitrant HS. We present here the case of a 26-year-old man with recurred inguinal and axillary HS, and this was treated with secondary healing and a split thickness skin graft after exteriorization. Based on our experience, it is suggested that secondary healing and a split thickness skin graft after exteriorization are effective for recalcitrant HS with multiple interconnected tracts and abscesses.
