ABSTRACT
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with a relapsing nature that has a significant impact on the patient's quality of life. The clinical presentation of the disease includes deep dermal abscesses and sinus tracts. Long-term affliction of the disease may lead to contractures, scars and fibrosis. Management is still challenging and varies from medical to surgical options. We report the following case of a man in his 30s who presented with severe HS in the axillae, groins, perineum and lower sacral region. The patient has been treated by excision of the whole lesions followed by using multiple fasciocutaneous flaps as a reconstructive method.
