ABSTRACT
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory follicular dermatological condition that typically affects the intertriginous and anogenital regions of the apocrine gland-bearing skin. The management of this chronic and recurring disease necessitates a combination of lifestyle changes, medication, and surgical approaches to achieve the best possible outcomes. While medical treatments are recommended for this multimodal disease, surgical therapy, which is the gold standard of treatment for HS, has proven to be the most effective treatment because it provides long-lasting local disease control, reduces the recurrence of lesions, and ensures complete healing of lesions. In the last decade, there has been exponential growth in research into various surgical techniques and reconstructive care, enabling patients to have more surgical options. There is a wide range of surgical management procedures available, such as incision and drainage, deroofing, excisional surgery, carbon dioxide laser therapy, and skin tissue-sparing excision with electrosurgical peeling. Among these surgical procedures, wide surgical excision is the best option since it can eradicate all the affected lesions. Meanwhile, the preferred approach to reconstruction at various anatomical locations remains debatable. Here, we review a variety of surgical treatments and reconstructive techniques for HS, particularly various flap techniques for the axillary, gluteal, and inframammary regions.
