Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an autoinflammatory skin disorder of the terminal hair follicle, which can present in sporadic, familial, or syndromic form. A classification has been proposed for the latter, distinguishing cases associated with a known genetic condition, with follicular keratinization disorders or with autoinflammatory diseases. This review focuses on the clinical and genetic features of those entities (ie, pyoderma gangrenosum [PG], acne and HS; PG, acne, pyogenic arthritis and HS; psoriatic arthritis, PG, acne and HS; synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis; and so forth) for which the collective term HS-related autoinflammatory syndromes is proposed.
