Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Abstract: Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory disease of apocrine gland-bearing skin. Although immunologic derangements, genetic predisposition, obesity, and smoking are likely important factors, the pathogenesis of the disease and the effect of available treatments on disease course have not been fully elucidated. In the absence of proper treatment, chronic inflammation results in diffuse scarring and a wide array of complications, including the development of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.

“…HS can occur in up to 4.1% of the population and is known to predominantly affect women [5]. The pathogenesis is poorly understood but involves follicular hyperkeratosis, lymphocytic inflammation, and sinus tract formation [2,6].…”

“…Additionally utilization of immunoperoxidase stain such as p40 is shown to be more specific for SCC compared to traditional p63 stain [10,11] and can bolster the diagnosis. Treatment of SCC in HS involves aggressive wide en-bloc surgical excision [5]. Despite this, patients can develop metastatic disease and treatment usually becomes palliative in nature [1].…”

“…Und nicht zuletzt sind im Hinblick auf eine mögliche mikrobielle Entstehung verschiedene Bakterien aus HS-Läsionen isoliert worden. Es ist jedoch unklar, ob die Bakterien kausal für die Pathogenese sind oder sekundär hinzukommen, insofern gilt eine Infektion als unwahrscheinliche Primärursache [10]. Auf der Grundlage histopathologischer Untersuchungen von HS-Biopsien wird häufig postuliert, dass HS durch Hyperkeratinisierung und die Okklusion von Terminalhaarfollikeln entsteht.…”

“…Auf der Grundlage histopathologischer Untersuchungen von HS-Biopsien wird häufig postuliert, dass HS durch Hyperkeratinisierung und die Okklusion von Terminalhaarfollikeln entsteht. In diesen bilden sich dann Knoten oder Zysten, bis schließlich das Follikelepithel aufbricht und es letztlich zur chronischen Entzündung mit Höhlen- und Fistelbildung und extensiver Hautvernarbung kommt [10,11,12,13,14]. …”
