Swiss Practice Recommendations for the Management of Hidradenitis Suppurativa/Acne Inversa

The Swiss Practice Recommendations for the Management of Hidradenitis Suppurativa/Acne Inversa emphasized a multidisciplinary approach involving dermatologists, surgeons, and other healthcare professionals. Key points included early diagnosis, individualized treatment plans, and the use of both medical (e.g., antibiotics, steroids, biologics like adalimumab) and surgical interventions. The guidelines also stressed the importance of patient education, lifestyle modifications (e.g., smoking cessation, weight reduction), and psychological support to improve patient outcomes and quality of life. Despite potential conflicts of interest, the recommendations aimed to provide a structured treatment algorithm based on disease severity and specific pathology.
