Popis: | Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a progressive, recurrent inflammatory disorder.To assess long-term satisfaction and postoperative perceptions among patients who underwent surgical management of HS.A questionnaire was mailed to 499 HS surgical patients to assess surgical outcome, satisfaction, and quality of life.Of the 499 questionnaires mailed, 113 were returned (22.6% response rate) and 2 were excluded for redundancy. Of the 111 respondents, 65 (58.6%) were female, 91 (82.0%) had Hurley Stage III disease, 88 (79.3%) were treated with excision and 23 (20.7%) with unroofing, 45 (40.5%) had perianal or perineal disease, and 41 (36.9%) had axillary disease. Most patients were satisfied or very satisfied with their surgical results (84.7%; 94 of 111), were glad they underwent surgery (96.3%; 105 of 109), and would recommend surgery to a friend or relative (82.6%; 90 of 109). Most patients were satisfied or very satisfied with the appearance of their healed wound (62.4%; 68 of 109). Retrospective mean quality of life increased significantly from 5 preoperatively to 8.4 postoperatively (p.001).Hidradenitis suppurativa surgical management was well regarded by patients and should be considered by future patients to limit the morbidity of HS. |
