Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, inflammatory condition of apocrine gland-bearing skin that typically presents as deep, inflamed lesions in the axillary, inguinal, perineal, and mammary regions. We present a rare case of a man in his 60s with a history of HS who presented with a peristomal sinus tract, as well as non-healing, draining wounds around his stoma site that responded well to adalimumab therapy. A compounded clobetasol ointment with poly(ethelyene oxide) polymers (POLYOXTM, Dupoont) was utilized to maintain stoma appliance adhesion, and his lesions effectively cleared with adalimumab.
