    Author: Highet AS, Warren RE, Weekes AJ.
    Journal: Arch Dermatol; 1988 Jul; 124(7):1047-51. PubMed ID: 3291777.
    Abstract:
    A plausible bacterial pathogen (Streptococcus milleri, Staphylococcus aureus, anaerobic streptococcus, or Bacteroides species) was isolated at least once in 26 of 32 patients with active perineal suppurative hidradenitis. The main pathogen was S milleri, whose presence was significantly associated with disease activity and whose disappearance significantly correlated with clinical improvement; S aureus nd anaerobic streptococci were also implicated.
