Summary

In this episode of the Future of Dermatology Podcast, we share a truncated replay of Dr. Daniel Klufas's session from the SF Derm 2024 Annual Conference on the management of Hydradenitis Suppurativa (HS) with a focus on the surgical technique of deroofing. This session covers the importance of medical optimization, patient selection, and the benefits of deroofing, including low recurrence rates and high patient satisfaction. Dr. Klufas emphasizes the need for thorough preoperative planning and the role of patient expectations in surgical outcomes.
