There is still ongoing research on the ideal treatment. Pilonidal sinus disease is most common in men between the ages of 20 and 30. For patients with symptoms of pilonidal sinüs (pain, itching and discharge with soiling of underwear) that interfere with their normal daily life, several treatment options have emerged. A hairy body, thick skin, overweight, a deep gluteal cleft, lack of hygiene, sedentarism, repeated chafing and previous familial history are commonly admitted as predisposing factors.\n\nThere are various surgical and non-surgical methods for its treatment. Many different surgical techniques have been defined. None of these surgical techniques are defined as 'gold standard'.\n\nFor many years, wide excision and secondary healing was the standard approach for pilonidal sinus disease. However, when this method resulted in prolonged healing and restriction of regular activities, various reconstructive methods were developed to demonstrate the disadvantages of secondary healing.\n\nA minimally invasive treatment modality for pilonidal sinüs dissease is excision of the sinus pit(s) followed by application of phenol to the sinus tract. Phenol is a sclerosing agent that destroys the epithelium and debris in the sinus, and is, thus, able to promote healing of the sinus.\n\nRecently, advances in laser technology have made laser ablation of the sinus tract possible. The aim is to destroy and obliterate the sinus tracts with thermal energy produced by the laser probe.\n\nThe aim of this prospective observational study was to compare phenolization and laser ablation in the treatment of pilonidal sinus disease.",[301,302,303],"Pilonidal Sinus Treatment","Pilonidal Sinus Disorder","Surgical Outcomes",[305],"Pilonidal Disease, Phenol, Laser Ablation",{"date":282,"type":42},{"date":308,"type":42},"2024-12-28",{"date":310,"type":23},"2026-07-15",{"name":48,"class":49},{"id":313,"slug":314,"hasResults":12,"nctId":315,"briefTitle":316,"officialTitle":317,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":318,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":85,"minAge":19,"maxAge":319,"enrollmentInfo":320,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":298,"phases":4,"briefSummary":322,"conditions":323,"keywords":327,"overallStatus":38,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":332,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":333,"startDateStruct":334,"completionDateStruct":335,"leadSponsor":337,"locationsCount":110},"100631040","patient-satisfaction-during-lomber-transforaminal-epidural-steroid-injection-the-role-of-sedation-anxiety-and-pain-100631040","NCT07495501","Patient Satisfaction During Lomber Transforaminal Epidural Steroid Injection: The Role of Sedation, Anxiety, and Pain","Patient Satisfaction During Lomber Transforaminal Epidural Steroid Injection: The Role of Sedation, Anxiety, and Pain: A Prospective Observational Study","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adults aged 18 to 80 years\n* No prior history of any interventional pain procedure\n* Ability to read and write in Turkish and to complete the study questionnaires\n* Written informed consent provided.\n* Planned lumbar transforaminal epidural steroid injection for radicular pain\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Refusal to provide written informed consent.\n* Inability to complete the satisfaction questionnaires reliably due to lack of Turkish literacy, significant cognitive impairment or severe visual or hearing impairment\n* Presence of major comorbidities such as decompensated cardiac or respiratory failure, uncontrolled arrhythmia or angina, myocardial infarction or stroke within the past 3 months, advanced liver or kidney failure, uncontrolled obstructive sleep apnea associated with morbid obesity, or severe pulmonary hypertension.","80 Years",{"count":321,"type":23},120,"Transforaminal epidural steroid injection (TFESI) is a minimally invasive procedure commonly used for the management of lumbar radicular pain.

In such cases, restorative procedures become more complicated, periodontal health may be adversely affected, and long-term tissue loss can occur. To overcome this problem, the \"Deep Margin Elevation\" technique has been developed. This approach aims to raise subgingival margins caused by caries or fractures above the gingival level, thereby providing a healthier and more favorable foundation for successful treatment.\n\nIn this study, two different materials will be used for deep margin elevation, followed by restoration of the teeth with indirect restorations fabricated using additive manufacturing technology, which has become increasingly popular in recent years. Two different additive manufacturing resins will also be applied in the restorative phase. The teeth treated with deep margin elevation and indirect restorations will be evaluated at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months according to the FDI criteria, as well as periodontal parameters due to the involvement of the gingival region.\n\nThis study aims to highlight the importance of material selection in restorative treatment planning and to scientifically demonstrate the impact of the applied technique on surrounding tissues.

The designed object is produced by printing it in successive layers.\n\nIn contrast, in subtractive manufacturing, restorations are produced by milling homogeneous blocks based on computer-designed models. Compared to subtractive manufacturing technology, additive manufacturing allows for the production of more complex, detailed, and larger structures with much less material waste and without excessive use of force.\n\nIt is thought that additive manufacturing has the potential to overcome the disadvantages of subtractive manufacturing. Over the past decade, global sales of industrial and personal 3D printers, materials, and services have increased by more than 33% annually.\n\nDue to its success in the production of surgical guides, temporary and permanent restorations, crowns and bridges, occlusal splints, frameworks, and orthodontic appliances, this technology has attracted significant interest in the field of dentistry.\n\nAlthough additive manufacturing has started to be used as an alternative to subtractive manufacturing in many applications, there is still a lack of information regarding the chemical composition, mechanical, and physical properties of printable resins.
