Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a recurrent, chronic, and suppurative cutaneous disease of unknown etiology. Radical excision of all affected skin followed by flap coverage of the defect is the treatment method of choice in severe and recurrent cases. This study discusses the use of local islanded perforator flaps in the reconstruction of defects following excision of hidradenitis suppurativa lesions in axillary, gluteal, and inguinal regions. Eleven male patients (mean age of 39.3 years) underwent reconstruction of hidradenitis suppurativa defects with 13 local islanded perforator flaps. Three patients (one being bilateral) had gluteal, two patients (one being bilateral) had inguinal, and six patients had axillary involvement. The defects in the gluteal region were repaired with superior gluteal artery perforator flaps, inguinal defects were repaired with medial circumflex femoral artery perforator flaps, and the axillary defects were repaired with thoracodorsal artery perforator flaps. There was no total flap loss in the postoperative period, but one marginal necrosis and two wound infections occurred. There was no recurrence of hidradenitis suppurativa or revision requirement during the mean follow-up period of 11.5 months.
