Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory scarring disease felt to be related to occlusion of the hair follicle unit in intertriginous areas. We perform a systematic review on HS histopathology to evaluate current knowledge and discuss future directions. PubMed and Scopus databases were searched for relevant articles published from January 1985 to January 2021 that discussed the pathology of HS. Additional articles were identified by hand-searching, which entailed manually scanning selected journals. A total of 355 citations were identified in the primary search within the main databases. Two hundred and seventy-nine articles were excluded after a review of titles, abstracts, and duplicates. Sixty-one studies did not meet the inclusion criteria or were found to be duplicates, resulting in a total of 15 articles for analysis. Three articles were hand-searched. This comprehensive systematic review of the histopathology of HS confirms a high prevalence of follicular occlusion, follicular hyperkeratosis, and hyperplasia of the follicular epithelium. These findings support the central role of follicular occlusion in the development and progression of HS while providing a potential path to directing therapeutics against follicular occlusion.
