Randomized Control Trial for the Treatment of Hidradenitis Suppurativa with a Neodymium-Doped Yttrium Aluminium Garnet Laser

Abstract: The long-pulse Nd:YAG laser is effective for treatment of HS. The effectiveness of Nd:YAG laser, a hair epilation device, supports the primary follicular pathogenesis of the condition.

“…Areas with vellus hairs, which include the inframammary area, had less improvement than the groin and axilla. This response supported the mechanism of laser-induced hair removal, and subsequent deep heating of inflammatory lesions [29]. Another study carried out by the same group focused on patients with Hurley Stage 2 disease as the laser was found to treat individual abscesses more effectively than the deep interconnected sinus tracts of Stage 3 disease.…”

“…It has been postulated that the use of long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser for HS could potentially work since HS evolves from primary follicular hyperkeratosis and occlusion. Tierney et al treated 22 patients with Stage 2-3 HS using the long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser with a 65.3% decrease in HS severity after three treatments using the modified HS Lesion, Area and Severity Index (HS-LASI) [29]. They also found greater improvement in anatomical areas with dark, coarse terminal hairs such as the inguinal area and axilla.…”

“…A Sartorius-skála a betegség súlyosságának dinamikusabb megítélésre szolgál. Fő paramétere az egyedi nodulusok és fisztulák száma, azonban számos olyan té nye zőt is figyelembe vesz, amelyet a terápia nem befolyásol (23,24 (25). A HiSCR skála alapvetően 3 lézió típust vesz figyelembe: az abszcesszusokat, a gyulladt csomókat és a váladékozó fisztulákat (szinuszjá-ratok, melyek a bőrfelszínnel is közlekedhetnek, purulens váladékozással).…”

“…A neodímium-YAG (Nd:YAG) lézer hatása azon alapul, hogy a HS alapvetően a szőrtüszőkből kiinduló betegség. A kezdeti eredmények ígéretesek, de további vizsgálatok szük-ségesek, hogy a Nd-YAG kezelés a HS standard terápiájának része legyen (23,24). A villanófény esetében is hatásmecha-nizmusa a Nd-YAG kezeléshez hasonló, azonban ebben az esetben is további vizsgálatok szükségesek (61).…”
