Filter by:It was investigated whether there is a factor that can aid determination of the preferred technique by comparing the early Limberg flap and Karydakis procedure techniques for the treatment of recurrent pilonidal sinus.
This study presents 23 sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease cases treated with endoscopic cleaning and fulguration of pilonidal sinus inner surfaca followed by application of crystallized phenol into the sinus.
The use of plasma rich in growth factors in wound excision pilonidal sinus could improve the healing process of the wound, when compared with the usual technique of daily local healing. The investigators propose the objective of evaluating the efficacy of intra- and postoperative application of plasma rich in growth factors, to reduce healing time and complications, arising from its removal, compared to the standard surgical treatment.
Video assisted ablation of pilonidal sinus (VAAPS) is a new endoscopic minimally invasive treatment. In an attempt to validate the effectiveness of the VAAPS, the investigators have designed a comparative study between the conventional and the minimally invasive treatment. Two surgical procedures were evaluated: VAAPS (Experimental group) and conventional excision with a Bascom out-midline closure (Control group).
The investigators want to share our study that is the "Comparison of Modified Limberg Flap Transposition and Lateral Advancement Flap Transposition with Burrow's Triangle in the Surgical Treatment of Sacrococcygeal Pilonidal Sinus.
Sinus pilonidal concern 26/100 000 young adults. It manifests after puberty, presenting as an acute abscess in approximately 50% of patients or as a discharging painful sinus. Patients may experience lengthy healing times resulting in considerable morbidity and disruption to a young adult's life. Eradication of pilonidal sinus is based on a wide surgical excision and at the end of the procedure, the wound is dressed with an alginate dressing (Algosteril®). The objective is to show a better efficiency of Sorbact TM (trademark) dressings compared to Alginates that are standardized dressings after pilonidal sinus excision during a period of 75 days. The main objective is to show a difference of 20% of wounds completely healed in 75 days between the two types of dressing: 50% of wounds healed with Algosteril TM compared to 70% of wounds healed with Sorbact TM.
To compare primary wound closure using a limberg flap with secondary (p.s.) wound healing following excision of a pilonidal sinus.
THEME RELEVANCE. Sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease (SPD) is a congenital disease that's well spread and constitutes 1-2% of all surgical pathologies. In all Coloproctological pathologies, the disease composes 14-20% (G.I. Vorobjov, 2006; V.D. Fedorov, 2005; Gupta P.J. et al., 2005). Clinical manifestations of pilonidal sinus disease mainly due to the appearance of inflammation in it. The main approach in the complex treatment of this group of patients is to execute radical surgery. The guiding principles in it are adequate sanation and drainage of purulent focus. Despite the fact that this disease is the subject of numerous medical journals, monographs, research works, masters and doctoral theses, frequency of unsatisfactory outcomes remains high (recurrence - from 10% to 19%, wound inflammation - 20-30%). In this case terms of stationary and out-patient treatment increase till 30-70 days (G.I. Vorobjov, 2006; B.M. Dacenko et al., 2004; Cubukcu А., 2001, Perruchoud С, 2002). The frequency of unsatisfactory results after excision of SPD directly depends on the kind of surgery. After palliative surgery (incision and drainage of abscess) in 11.7 - 25.2% of patients occurs recurrence of the disease (McCallum I., King P.M., Bruce J., 2007;), for the open wound healing recurrence occur in 3-8% of the operated. For primary wound healing in 7,5-9,7% required re-surgery (V.K. An, 2003; A.A. Kartashev, 2011). Sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease overwhelmingly affects people, mostly young working age, and treatment failure leads to long-term temporary disability of patients. In the last few years continue to discuss methods of one-time or multi-stage radical surgical treatment of pilonidal sinus, but to date there is no single approach to the choice of surgical treatment for this disease (V.L. Denisenko, 2008). Success of surgical treatment of SPD depends on the development and introduction of new devices and techniques exist to produce convergence and immobilization of the wound edges, thereby obtaining its primary healing and a significant reduction of wound surface. The high frequency of the disease and postoperative complications, as well as long-term temporary disability of patients demonstrates the relevance of the development of modern methods of radical surgery of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease (V.I. Pomazkin, 2008). AIM OF RESEARCH. The aim of our research is to improve the results of complex radical surgical treatment of patients of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease through the development and introduction of new devices and techniques for convergence and immobilization wound edges. TASKS OF RESEARCH. 1. To conduct a comparative analysis the most common surgical treatment of SPD in the frequency of complications in the intra- and postoperative periods. 2. To develop a device for convergence and immobilization wound edges in patients with SPD. 3. To analyze the effectiveness of the developed techniques and devices in comparison with traditional surgical treatment. 4. To make practical recommendations on the options and methods of using the developed methods and devices. NOVELTY OF RESEARCH. For the first time, based on the design and creation of an approximation-immobilization device (RU Patent № 112020, Bull. № 1, 01.10.2012) will be improved the surgical treatment of patients with this pathology, clinical and anatomical study of the proposed device for different configurations of gluteal-sacrococcygeal region, as well as the analysis and justification of the basic parameters of wound (length, depth and width of the wound, the number of stitches, the complication rate , the area of the wound). Developed a method of closure of the wound defect after radical excision of pilonidal sinus by Krivonosov-Brezhnev (RU Patent № 2,464,943, Bull. № 30 from 10.27.12.), that significantly reduces the risk of postoperative complications in patients with acute inflammation of the SPD. For the first time an analysis of postoperative period in patients operated with the proposed methods compared with traditional methods of surgery was performed. POSSIBLE APPLICATION AREAS. Results of the research designed for use in the treatment process of coloproctological departments at all levels, as well as the learning process of medical schools. EXPECTED EFFECTIVENESS. 1. Scientific and technical effect: developed new techniques and devices for convergence and immobilization wound edges used for the treatment patients with SPD. 2. Medical and social effects: the introduction into clinical practice of the developed techniques and devices will improve the results of surgical treatment of patients with SPD by rigid fixation of wound edges, by reducing the time of postoperative wound healing, by decreasing the risk of complications in the early postoperative period.

Please provide the investigator's "Official Title" (e.g., Director, Head of Otolaryngology, Principal Investigator, Clinical Professor).Pilonidal sinus disease is a common health problem. It is seen most frequently in the sacrococcygeal region. However, it can also observed in the umbilicus. Although rare, umbilical pilonidal sinus (UPS) disease, is still poorly understood both in terms of diagnosis or pathophysiology and the best treatment options. The incidence and the prevelance of the disease is thought to be 0.6% and %0.1, respectively, and is more common in males. Pilonidal sinus disease of the umbilicus is caused by hair penetrating the skin, causing a foreign-body reaction and development of a sinus lined with granulation tissue. Most of the patients complain of pain, discharge or bleeding from the umbilicus when symptoms develop. It can be diagnosed with a careful examination, in which hairs can be seen deep in the umbilicus and usually protrude from a small sinus. The first article, which can be considered as umbilical pilonidal sinus disease was first published by Dr. Warren in 1854, and he described the removal of a sprinkle of hair from the umbilicus. But the term "umbilical pilonidal sinus" was first described and used by Williams and Patey in 1956. Since this initial reference to umbilical pilonidal sinus there have been approximately only 30 reports in the literature. Most of them are case reports and remaining consists of small case series. But until now no prospective randomised studies have been published related to UPS. UPS is one of the most neclected disease that few reported studies and lack of the prospective randomised studies in the literature, and no cosensus about the treatment of the disease supports this idea. However, it may be actually more common than thought and may be found more frequently if sought specifically. The aim of the study was to compare the results of conservative and surgical treatment, to create an algorithm for the management of the disease, and gain more information about the etiologiy, pathogenesis, and course of the disease. The investigators hypothesise that surgical treatment of UPS will be better than conservative management in terms of recurrence rate, healing time, patient comfort and satisfaction, and cost effectiveness.
Methylene bleu use in pilonidal sinus surgery is not an effective guidance as expected.
