Treatment of Hidradenitis Suppurativa with Extensive Resection of the Lesion and Coverage with Perforator Flaps of the Lateral Thoracic Wall (Lateral Thoracic Artery, Thoracodorsal Artery Perforators)

Summary:. Stage IV hidradenitis suppurativa in the axilla is a chronic disease in which the removal of the affected area and a reconstruction with disease free skin is the definitive treatment; however there is some controversy about the technique to be used in this reconstruction. Studies show supe...
