Many cases of superinfected hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) involve multiple species of bacteria, but gas-producing infections are rare and can complicate the clinical picture. Additionally, recognizing squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) as a complication of longstanding HS is imperative. Herein, we present a unique case of a severe emphysematous HS that was initially mistaken for Fournier gangrene and eventually diagnosed as superinfected SCC.
许多化脓性汗腺炎(HS)重叠感染病例涉及多种细菌,但产气感染罕见且会使临床情况复杂化。此外,必须认识到鳞状细胞癌(SCC)是长期HS的一种并发症。在此,我们报告一例独特的严重气肿性HS病例,该病例最初被误诊为福尼尔坏疽,最终被诊断为重叠感染的SCC。
