Abstract

In this case series, ustekinumab therapy demonstrated efficacy in some patients with severe hidradenitis suppurativa previously treated with adalimumab and/or infliximab. Larger prospective studies are needed to evaluate ustekinumab as a treatment option for recalcitrant hidradenitis suppurativa.
