Nonoperative Treatment of Recurrent Pilonidal Sinus Disease
Pilonidal SinusPostoperative recurrent pilonidal sinus disease is troublesome and its treatment is challenge. Many treatment modalities have been advocated in the treatment of recurrent pilonidal sinus disease; however, there is still no consensus in the literature. Some minimally invasive techniques are used alone or as an adjunct to surgery. Crystallized phenol is the most popular method in the nonoperative treatment of primer pilonidal sinus disease. But its long term effect in the postoperative recurrent cases is unclear. Investigators aimed to present the long-term efficacy of crystallized phenol treatment on postoperative recurrent pilonidal sinus disease through our results collected within the last 20 years.
A Preliminary, Non-comparative Study to Evaluate a Bioresorbable Wound Scaffold in Acute Wounds...
Pilonidal SinusAs this is a proof-of-concept study, the primary objective is to provide preliminary data on the safety and efficacy of Bioresorbable Wound Scaffold in the management of acute wounds left to heal by secondary intent.
Pilonidal Sinus-Turkey
Pilonidal Sinus TreatmentIn this research, main purpose is to determine the recurrence prevalence. Destination of the cohort study in which retroprospective data are prospectively reviewed, which aims to identify pilonidal disease subtypes for which various treatment options are indicated, identify various interventions, associate patients with the clinical stage, determine which results are meaningful to patients and which interventions they prefer and provide further research investigation recommendations. . Primary outcome; To determine the postoperative recurrence rates according to the type of surgical intervention. The secondary outcome is; to compare the overall patient satisfaction between different operative techniques and to obtain the ratio of different techniques applied for pilonidal sinus treatment in Turkey.
Off-midline Closure Errors as a Risk Factor for Recurrence Following Limberg Flap in Patients With...
Pilonidal SinusRecurrenceBackground. Limberg flap, one of the recently being popularized off-midline closure techniques, is widely performed for the treatment of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus; however, recurrences still can be seen. Objective. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between recurrence and off-midline closure errors made in Limberg flap reconstructions. Design. A multicenter, matched-case-control study was conducted in three participating centers in Turkey. Settings. Each hospital's database was searched separately and all patients with and without recurrence who underwent LF surgery for primary SPS from January 2008 to July 2015 were identified. Patients. Sixty patients with recurrent disease (recurrent group, RG) and 120 matched cases of recurrence-free patients for at least 5 years following surgery (non-recurrent group, NRG) were included to the study. Interventions Main outcome measures. According to the off-midline closure concept, LF reconstructions were classified into incorrect closures (Type 1, 2 and 3) and correct closures (type 4, 5 and 6). Then the two groups were analyzed.
Pilonidal Sinus Disease: Preliminare Study
Pilonidal SinusPilonidal disease is morbid condition of young productive population, that could impair quality of life with high cost for health care system. No consensus exists on optimal surgical treatment, even if several techniques have been proposed. In this preliminary experimental case-control study the investigators compared excision by knife and diathermy with the aim to investigate if wound dehiscence could be related to heat spreading during excision of the sinus.
Umblical Pilonidal Sinus Evaluation
Pilonidal SinusPurpose: Pilonidal sinus disease (PSD) is a chronic inflammatory condition of skin due to implanted loose hair. PSD is commonly seen in sacrococcygeal region, but can also be seen in axilla, perineum, suprapubic regions, on hands and umbilicus. The aim of this project was to find factors influencing the development and treatment of umbilical pilonidal sinus. Material and methods: In this cross-sectional prospective study, the investigators evaulated 82 (19 female, 63 male) patients with a history of umbilical pilonidal disease (e.g. predisposing factors, treatment modalities) between 2012 and 2020.
The Most Frequently Preferred Surgical Method In The Treatment Of Sacrococcygeal Pilonidal Disease...
Pilonidal SinusThere is no consensus on which procedure is the ideal surgical method in the treatment of sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease (SPD). The study aimed to retrospectively screen the cases that had undergone surgical treatment for SPD in the last 15 years in four different tertiary Stage hospitals and analyze the most frequently used surgical treatment method and its results.
Staging System for Chronic Symptomatic Pilonidal Sinus Disease
Pilonidal SinusA staging system was defined based on morphological extent of disease (stage I to stage IV for primary disease, and stage R for recurrent disease). Specific surgical technique was used for each stage. Demographics, perioperative data, short-term and long-term outcomes were evaluated according to the disease stage.
Long-term Outcome After Pit-pick for Simple Pilonidal Sinus Disease
Pilonidal Sinus of Natal CleftSingle-center cohort study of long-term results after pit-pcik for pilonidal sinus disease.
Histological Analysis of Sacrococcygeal Pilonidal Sinus Specimens
PathologyMinimally invasive techniques have been widely used routinely and reliably in the treatment of pilonidal sinus. In some of these methods, the cavity of sinus remains in the patient; this condition caused us to question the necessity of pathological examination. Except for prolonged duration of disease, elderly age, macroscopic suspicion, and recurrence; We think that routine pathological examination of the pilonidal sinus is unnecessary.
