Crohn’s disease (CD) and hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) are chronic, recurrent inflammatory diseases of the epithelia. In CD, the inflammation may involve any part of the gastrointestinal tract, and is characterized by discontinuous transmural, inflammatory lesions of the gut wall (1). HS is a skin disease caused by concomitant occlusion of the apocrin glands. It usually manifests by recurrent abscesses, nodules, and draining sinus tracts localized in the groin and axillae, with resultant scarring (2-4). The occurrence of both CD and HS in the same individual has been reported in several case reports and studies (2). There are several similarities between CD and HS. Both are chronic diseases of the epithelia, but the etiology of both diseases is largely unknown. Smoking has been identified as a risk factor, and both show clinical responses to antiTNF-alpha. Moreover, fistula formation accompanies both (5). We present a case with comorbidity of these two diseases in an old woman with multifocal abscesses.
