Clinical Trial Summary

Pilonidal 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.


Clinical Trial Description

Between January 2017 and February 2018, 29 patients underwent to sinus excision. The investigators considered 16 sinus excision performed by diathermy as a case group (named "Hot" group) and the last 13 procedures performed by knife as control group (named "Cold" group). Temperature data were recorded for both group. Follow-up was carried out until complete healing. Were considered primary and secondary outcomes. ;
