โœฆ Synopsis

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory disease of the apocrine sweat glands. Patients suffer recurrent infections of these glands in the axillae, groin and perineal areas. Response to conservative therapy is unpredictable and often short-lived though recent reports of improved success with isotretinoin' offer some encouragement. Surgical excision, often of extensive areas of skin, with skin grafting, healing by granulation or flap formation is still the mainstay of treatment in most We have treated six patients with this disease with the carbon dioxide laser from 1980 to 1985. Two further patients are currently undergoing treatment. The method of treatment and results are presented.
