Abstract

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, recurrent, suppurative disorder of the pilosebaceous unit, presenting as tender nodules, abscesses, and sinus tracts in axillary, inguinal, and anogenital regions. HS and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) share overlapping genetic and immunologic features, suggesting a possible pathogenic link.
