Hidradenitis Suppurativa in Emergency Medicine

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic condition caused by a defect of the follicular epithelium leading to follicular occlusion and subsequent follicular rupture. It is characterized by large, painful, inflamed nodules, sterile abscesses and sinus tracts in the axillae, groin, and other parts of the body that contain apocrine glands. Velpeau first described the condition in 1839.
