Specimen Collection for Translational Studies in Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Abstract Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by painful nodules, sinus tracts, and scars occurring predominantly in intertriginous regions. The prevalence of HS is currently 0.053–4%, with a predominance in African-American women and has been linked to low...
