Abstract
The Verneuil’s disease or Hidradenitis suppurativa is a disease that affects the apocrine sweat glands. The diagnosis is often made after some chronic episodes. Search for other locations in the body must be systematic. The treatment is essentially surgical and constrained, consisting of large excisions, and sometimes repeated. Recurrence is common. Our study is based on 40 cases of Verneuil’s disease, all male, whose average age is 32 years. Clinical examination was dominated by the presence of several fistulas in the perianal region. Treatment was surgical, associated with large excisions, requiring daily local care. Results were satisfactory and the time for scar tissue development varied between 45 and 60 days. Thefollow-up was of one to ten years and we noted seven cases of recurrence, operated using the same technique and with good results.
