Gluteal hidradenitis suppurativa presenting pemphigus-like findings: case report.
BMC Dermatology 2019 July 24
BACKGROUND: Hidradenitis suppurativa is one member of the follicular occlusion triad: acne conglobata, hidradenitis suppurativa, and dissecting cellulitis of the scalp. The presence of acantholysis and desmoglein autoantibodies in hidradenitis suppurativa is rare.
CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of 68-year-old male with a diagnosis of gluteal hidradenitis suppurativa co-presenting pemphigus-like findings including acantholysis and positive desmoglein autoantibodies.
CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, comorbidity of gluteal hidradenitis suppurativa and pemphigus-like findings has not been reported before. This case implies a relationship between two different conditions; the follicular occlusion triad and pemphigus, highlighting a potential induction of pemphigus-like lesion by chronic inflammatory process.
