Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic suppurative scarring disease of apocrine sweat gland-bearing skin in the axillary, anogenital, and, rarely, the breast and scalp regions. Females are more commonly affected than males and it is usually seen at puberty or later. We report two girls with prepubertal hidradenitis suppurativa whose initial presentation predated any signs of puberty. This early onset is very rare and its etiology remains unknown. Severe disease can be seen in prepubertal children and surgical intervention is effective in these cases.
化脓性汗腺炎（HS）是一种发生于腋窝、肛门生殖器部位，极少发生于乳房和头皮区域的顶泌汗腺皮肤的慢性化脓性瘢痕性疾病。女性比男性更易受累，通常在青春期或更晚发病。我们报告了两名青春期前患化脓性汗腺炎的女孩，她们最初的表现早于青春期的任何体征。这种早发性非常罕见，其病因尚不清楚。青春期前儿童可出现严重疾病，手术干预对这些病例有效。
