This article discusses the case of a 44-year-old woman with hyperimmunoglobulinemia D periodic fever syndrome (HIDS) who also developed hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). HIDS is a rare autoinflammatory disorder caused by mutations in the MVK gene, while HS is a chronic skin disease characterized by recurrent nodules, abscesses, and scars. The article suggests that the coexistence of HIDS and HS may provide insights into the molecular pathways underlying autoinflammation and could potentially lead to new therapeutic strategies for both conditions.
