Filter by:Study Description: The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the duration of postoperative pain relief achieved with two different approaches to pudendal nerve block in patients undergoing elective perianal surgery. The main question this study aims to answer is whether adding Methylene Blue to Bupivacaine pudendal nerve block can prolong postoperative analgesia compared to using Bupivacaine alone. Participants in this study will be individuals with ASA I and II physical status undergoing elective perianal surgery under spinal anesthesia. They will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1. Group A (Case Group): Participants will receive a pudendal nerve block with Bupivacaine combined with Methylene Blue. 2. Group B (Control Group): Participants will receive a pudendal nerve block with Bupivacaine alone. The pudendal nerve block will be performed using ultrasound guidance at the level of the ischial spine. The needle tip will be positioned between the Sacro tuberous and sacrospinous ligaments to inject the local anesthetic or the local anesthetic combined with Methylene Blue. Throughout the study, the researchers will monitor the time to the first rescue analgesic, assess pain levels using the Numeric Rating Scale at various time intervals (2, 6, 24, 48 hours, and 7 days), and observe for any side effects or complications related to the intervention. Participants will be closely observed after surgery to assess their pain levels and analgesic requirements. The researchers will also evaluate patient satisfaction using the Likert scale. By comparing the outcomes between the two groups, the study aims to determine if the addition of Methylene Blue to Bupivacaine pudendal nerve block provides superior postoperative analgesia in perianal surgery patients. This information will contribute to the understanding of effective pain management strategies for individuals undergoing perianal surgical procedures and potentially reduce the need for opioids and improve patient outcomes.
Biomedical research consists of two main parts. In the first part, the pilonidal cyst-specific quality of life questionnaire is compiled, adapted, validated, tested for suitability in assessing patients after pilonidal cyst operations. The second part will compare two pilonidal cyst operations. A prospective, comparative, randomized clinical study will be conducted.
Infected pilonidal sinuses are a common pathology, affecting an estimated 0.7% of the population. In France, the most commun technique is extended exeresis with an open wound, followed by directed healing. This technique reduces the risk of recurrence, albeit at the cost of daily nursing care and a long healing period involving prolonged absence from work. Closure or plasty surgical techniques aimed at reducing the duration of nursing care are more restrictive, and seem to have higher recurrence rate. Minimally invasive treatment, such as phenolization and flattening with curettage of the sinus have existed for over 50 years, albeit with disappointing long-term results and morbidity that limits their application. Today, new minimally invasive treatments are being developed, aiming at a less constraining post-operative period. without compromising healing. These include glue, endoscopic treatment (EPSiT : Endoscopic Pilonidal Sinus Treatment or VAASP : Video-Assisted Ablation of Pilonidal Sinus) and laser treatment (SiLaT procedure : Sinus Laser Therapy or PiLaT : Pilonidal disease Laser Treatment). Laser treatment is used since 2014 in the treatment of anal fistulas and more recently in the treatment of infected pilonidal sinus. A laser fiber is introduced, under local or general anaesthesia, into the main cavity and secondary tracts after curettage and opening of the dimples. The energy delivered by the laser is transmitted in the form of heat, in order to seal the cavity during healing of thermal lesions. Initial results report success rates of around 90%, with a healing time of between 1 and 2 months. It also appears to be effective after failure of previous surgery. In cases of incomplete closure or recurrence, a second laser treatment can be performed with high healing rates. The investigators carried out an retrospective study including 29 patients treated with the SILAT technique. The healing rate, defined as the absence of symptoms and recurrence of suppuration, was around 70%. The procedure was painless and no serious complications were observed. The presence of one or more secondary orifices and overweight were associated with a higher risk of failure. In order to confirm these results, to better specify the factors predictive of success, and to evaluate the efficacy of SiLaT in the longer term, the investigators will carry out a single-center study including all adult patients treated with laser between June 2018 and December 2020.
Sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease (PND) is a common entity affecting the skin and subcutaneous tissue of the upper portion of the natal cleft of the buttocks. It is characterized by the presence of sinus tracts with recurrent inflammation and infection. It poses a significant healthcare problem due to its related morbidity, impaired quality of life, and financial costs.
Infected pilonidal sinus is a common suppuration that occurs twice as often in men as in women, usually between the ages of 15 and 30. Clinical diagnosis is easy, whether the presentation is acute or chronic. Exeresis with a wound left open requiring secondary postoperative healing is the most widely practiced technique in France because its recurrence rate is the lowest, but it has the disadvantage of requiring daily or even twice-daily local nursing care, long healing, and a break in activity. In order to limit the disadvantages of the open technique, "conservative" minimally invasive techniques have also recently been developed in response to strong patient demand: such as endoscopic treatment (EPSIT = Endoscopic Pilonidal Sinus Treatment, or VAAPS = Video-Assisted Ablation of Pilonidal Sinus), or the SiLaT (Sinus Laser Therapy) laser. More recently, radiofrequency has emerged as a new technique in the treatment of hemorrhoidal pathology according to the Rafaelo procedure as well as the Fistura procedure for anal fistulas. The principle of the treatment is similar to that of the laser, based on radio frequency thermocoagulation using very high frequency electromagnetic waves (4MHz), similar to the principle of microwaves. However, its use in the infected pilonidal sinus has not yet been described. The fibers used in anal fistulas are perfectly adapted to the treatment of the pilonidal sinus. In addition, and in contrast to the laser, several fiber diameters are available depending on the size of the fistula path(s). For example, the large diameters of 9 Fr seem to be more adapted to the deep and wide cavities of the pilonidal sinuses than those of the SiLaT, which has a single fiber diameter. The investigators can therefore think that this type of fibers could allow a more efficient destruction of the granulation tissues and a better docking of the cavity walls. According to published studies in the treatment of anal fistulas, the safety profile of this treatment is perfectly reassuring since the penetrance of the energy released does not exceed 3 mm in depth. The aim of this study is to propose a competing alternative to the SiLaT laser, which is radiofrequency according to the Fistura® procedure, by evaluating its safety, efficacy and patient satisfaction on a series of consecutive patients treated
Sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease (PSD) has been defined as a disease characterized by chronic inflammation and recurrent infections caused by the movement of hair toward the gluteal sulcus. This condition is especially seen in young men and negatively affects the quality of life of patients and prevents them from performing their work and school activities. The treatment options for PSD range from the use of antibiotics alone to reconstructed excision with tissue flaps. Although the optimal surgical treatment option remains controversial, expectations from the ideal surgical treatment include low recurrence and postoperative complication rates, early wound healing, short hospital stay, early return to work, and good cosmetic outcomes. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of the different flap techniques in the surgical treatment of PSD and evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients.
Surgical treatment witn lateralization of intergluteal cleft is still gold standard for pilonidal sinus disaease. But nowadays minimally invasive treatment methods such as the use of a diode laser (SiLac, Sinus Laser Closure) to obliterate the coccygeal tract are used more often. The aim of the study is to compare a new minimal invasive method (laser treatment) with traditional method ( Bascom II) in terms of recurrence rate, complications and patients satisfaction with results.
In 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.
