[Verneuil's disease. The diffuse inguino-perineo-gluteal and bilateral axillary form]

Abstract

The authors report a case of suppurative hidradenitis of unusual severity affecting the axillary, inguinal, perianal, genital and sacral areas. The surgical treatment consisted initially of large excision of the axillary areas. A musculo-cutaneous latissimus dorsi island flap was then used to cover the defect. 45 days later, a complete excision, in only one operative session, of the inguinal, perianal, genital and sacral area was performed, associate durth colostomy. A mesh graft was performed 15 days after the excision. This procedure allowed an early scar.
