[Hidradenitis suppurativa and psoriasis. Therapeutic response to secukinumab].
Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa and psoriasis are chronic inflammatory systemic dermatoses. The immune system plays a fundamental role in their pathogenesis, as each involves an immunological imbalance and the participation of numerous cytokines, including interleukin-17. The coexistence of these conditions can significantly impair quality of life, thus requiring integrated and targeted therapeutic approaches. We report the case of a 47-year-old woman diagnosed with hidradenitis suppurativa who developed psoriasis lesions over time. After receiving multiple therapeutic regimens without response, she began treatment with secukinumab, with excellent outcomes for both entities.
