Features procedural videos covering laser therapies, de-roofing procedures, excision techniques, cryoinsufflation techniques, and special wound care material selection and techniques.
Includes promising future drugs and therapiesthat are under investigation.
Identifies evidence gaps that provide a springboard to the future innovations in HS care to come.
Edited and authored by global experts who have helped co-author U.S., Canadian, and European guidelines on HS.
