Hidradenitis Suppurativa Found Associated With Cytokine Storm.

BACKGROUND:Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that generates multiple cytokines. Here, we present an example of the cytokines forming a cytokine storm and its effects on the patient. CASE PRESENTATION:We report the case of a 55-year-old man who had severe but stable HS. Serum samples were collected from the patient and extraordinarily elevated cytokine concentrations were identified in the patient's serum.  Conclusion: Cytokine storms may be a condition associated with HS posing additional risk to patient survival.
