Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), also called acne inversa, is an inflammatory disease characterized by recurring, painful abscesses, and fistulous tracts, and can impact adults and pediatric patients. Symptoms of HS include pain and scarring as well as psychological consequences, such as embarrassment, social isolation, and depression, and is associated with a poor quality of life. Several studies suggest that the prevalence of HS ranges from 0.00033 to 4.1%, although underdiagnosis or improper diagnosis is an issue.
