  • Title: [Verneuil's peri-anal suppurative hidrosadenitis. Considerations on 2 clinical cases].
    Author: Estienne G, Di Bella F.
    Journal: Minerva Chir; 1989 Nov 30; 44(22):2361-4. PubMed ID: 2696892.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of perianal Verneuil's disease personally observed are described. It is a rare chronic inflammation of the apocrine sweat glands in several skin areas. The exasperating chronicity and the propensity to extend of the disease involve complicated problems of diagnosis and therapy. A squamous cell carcinoma can rarely complicate long lasting hidrosadenitis. The treatment consist in a radical surgical excision of the involved areas. The patient must be controlled for a long time since the evolution of this disease cannot be foreseen.
