We describe 5 patients with grouped perianal comedones who developed the lesions in adulthood and were treatment-naïve in the perianal area. Four of them had had inflammatory lesions in armpits and groins.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on differentiating perianal issues caused by hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and perianal fistulizing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), as they often present similar symptoms.
- A retrospective review of patient data at the Mayo Clinic identified 15 key clinical features using machine learning to help distinguish between HS and IBD cases.
- Findings revealed significant differences in symptoms, with HS patients showing more skin-related issues and IBD patients experiencing additional gastrointestinal symptoms, which may lead to better diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Article Synopsis
- A 62-year-old male patient showed a unique spongy appearance of the perianal skin after undergoing surgery for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), characterized by multiple orifices and cysts.
- Histopathological analysis revealed dilated hair follicles and keratin, suggesting that the spongy appearance was due to spontaneous shedding of cystic contents.
- The condition, termed "cystic sponge anus," may be linked to factors like HS, smoking, and male gender, requiring further research to understand its prevalence and related health issues.
