Brief Summary

Pilonidal sinus disease (PSD) is a chronic inflammation and infection of the sacrococcygeal region. Produces clinic findings with abscess and discharge in the sacrococcygeal region or painful sinus tract in the natal cleft. Its incidence rate among Turkish servicemen is reported to be 8.8% in a study. Although pilonidal sinus disease is common in men, this is the opposite in adolescence. Because adolescent girls are 2 or 3 times more. Karydakis flap and Limberg flap operations widely preferred in recent years in the surgical treatment of PSD. In our study, we aim to compare these two techniques prospectively and randomly.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative recurrence

    pain, swelling and redness in examination

    1 month

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Postoperative infection

    1 week

  • Postoperative wound dehiscence

    1 week

Study Arms (2)

karydakis flap

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

An asymmetric elliptical excision is performed, defective tissues between the lower and upper ends are removed until they reach healthy borders. The wound edge is then mobilized and the flap is slid over the corresponding wound edge by suturing to the fascia and the skin to the appropriate wound layers. Thus, the gluteal groove is lateralized. Subcutaneous tissue and skin are closed.

Procedure: pilonidal sinus excision

limberg flap

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Rhomboid excision and pilonidal sinuses together with damaged tissue. On the right side of the patient, the intact skin is shifted to the medial area where the tissues are removed without tension. Thus, the defective part and gluteal groove are corrected.

Procedure: pilonidal sinus excision

Interventions

Closure of the defect in pilonidal sinus excision with one of the randomly selected flap methods.
