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.",[25,26,27],"Pilonidal Sinus Treatment","Pilonidal Sinus Disorder","Surgical Outcomes",[29],"Pilonidal Disease, Phenol, Laser Ablation","RECRUITING","2026-03-23",{"date":33,"type":34},"2026-03-25","ACTUAL",{"date":36,"type":34},"2024-12-28",{"date":38,"type":20},"2026-07-15",{"name":40,"class":41},"Mersin University","OTHER",1,{"id":44,"slug":45,"hasResults":11,"nctId":46,"briefTitle":47,"officialTitle":48,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":49,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":16,"minAge":17,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":50,"targetDuration":52,"studyType":22,"phases":4,"briefSummary":53,"conditions":54,"keywords":55,"overallStatus":30,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":60,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":61,"startDateStruct":63,"completionDateStruct":65,"leadSponsor":67,"locationsCount":42},"100621445","factors-affecting-wound-dehiscence-in-pilonidal-sinus-surgery-oripis-100621445","NCT07370714","Factors Affecting Wound Dehiscence in Pilonidal Sinus Surgery (ORIPIS)","A Multicenter, Prospective, Observational Study on Factors Affecting Wound Dehiscence in Pilonidal Sinus Surgery: The Impact of Anal Proximity, Morphological Stage, and Surgical Technique (ORIPIS)","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adult patients (≥18 years of age)\n* Diagnosis of pilonidal sinus disease\n* Patients undergoing pilonidal sinus surgery as part of routine clinical care\n* Ability to provide informed consent\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients undergoing emergency surgery\n* Previous pilonidal sinus surgery at the same site\n* Inability to complete postoperative follow-up",{"count":51,"type":20},250,"3 Months","The goal of this multicenter, prospective, observational study is to investigate factors associated with wound dehiscence following pilonidal sinus surgery.
