Participants will have two extra hospital visits in casethey are enrolled in our study: 6 and 12 months after enrolment. Postoperatively the normal scheme of follow up appointments wil be used: 2 and 6 weeks after treatment at the outpatient clinic of the treating surgeon. A telephone appointment with the researcher will be scheduled 4 weeks after treatment. Patients are asked to complete questionnaires at various time points, which will be sentto them by email and will take approximately 5-10 minutes each time. The content includes general and disease specific Quality of Life (QoL) questionnaires. The investigators do not expect any extra adverse reactions or events in respect to participation in the study because both procedures are considered standard of care in the participating clinics. However, because both interventions are surgical procedures a small percentage of adverse events or postoperative complications can be expected.",[26,27,28,29,30],"Pilonidal Sinus","Pilonidal Disease","Pilonidal Sinus of Natal Cleft","Pilonidal Disease of Natal Cleft","Pilonidal Sinus Without Abscess",[32,33,34,35],"Pit-picking","Laser-assisted therapy","SiLaC","Minimally invasive surgery","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2024-08-28",{"date":39,"type":40},"2024-08-29","ACTUAL",{"date":37,"type":20},{"date":43,"type":20},"2032-05",{"name":45,"class":46},"dr.
