Isotretinoin and Hidradenitis Suppurativa a Conflictual Binomial: Investigation on Differential Response Rate Between Inflammatory and Follicular Phenotype

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
A cohort of 21 HS patients treated with isotretinoin was enrolled in this study. The main outcome was HISCR50 achievement at week 16. Overall, 2/12 patients affected by follicular phenotype of HS and 2/9 patients affected by inflammatory phenotype of HS achieved HISCR50 at week 16. No significant difference was found in response to isotretinoin between
