Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, characterized by suppurative lesions typically in the intertriginous areas with variable clinical presentation from painful nodules to sinus tracts that generate anatomical deformity. It predominantly affects women of childbearing age, given the constant fluctuation of sex hormones and metabolic changes that are not yet well described.
We present a clinical case of a 25-year-old female patient, with a history of hidradenitis suppurativa, who presents during pregnancy exacerbation of lesions, multiple sinus tracts and hypertrophic scars involving axillary, perineal and genital regions; through which we show a multidisciplinary therapeutic approach with the dermatology and obstetrics service.
