Abstract

1. Abstract
•
There is a lack of studies assessing whether surgery of problematic areas is useful for overall control of the hidradenitis suppurativa.
•
We evaluated the disease course of the patients with hidradenitis suppurativa who underwent wide excision of complex fistula tracts between October 2018 and February 2022 at Hospital Universitario de la Princesa.
•
We found that wide excision of complex fistulas produces an overall positive effect on the inflammatory activity in hidradenitis suppurativa that may be important to achieve an adequate control of the disease.
