DOI: 10.1080/00015458.2018.1515337
Abstract: Abstract Background: Fistula formation in hidradenitis suppurativa follows an uncontrolled infection with subcutaneous tracts leading to ‘watering-can’ or ‘pus-pot’ perineum. Closure of this type of fistula implies major surgery and is bound to fail in… read more here.
