Aims: The purpose of this study was to evaluate excision and open granulation versus excision and primary closure as treatments for pilonidal sinus. Subjects and methods: We evaluated a group of 141 patients operated on for a pilonidal sinus between 1991 and 1995. Ninety patients were treated by excision and open granulation, 34 patients by excision and primary closure and 17 patients by incision and drainage, as a unique treatment of an infected pilonidal sinus. Results: The first group, receiving treatment of excision and open granulation, experienced the following outcomes: average length of hospital stay, four days; average healing time; 72 days; average number of post-operative ambulatory visits, 40; average off-work delay, 38 days; and average follow-up time, 43 months. There were five recurrences (6%) in this group during the follow-up period. For the second group treated by excision and primary closure, the corresponding outcome measurements were as follows: average length of hospital stay, four days; average healing time, 23 days; primary healing failure rate, 9%; average number of post-operative ambulatory visits, 6; average off-work delay, 21 days. The average follow-up time was 34 months, and two recurrences (6%) were observed during the follow-up period. In the third group, seventeen patients benefited from an incision and drainage as unique treatment. The mean follow-up was 37 months. Five recurrences (29%) were noticed, requiring a new operation in all the cases. Discussion and conclusion: This series of 141 patients is too limited to permit final conclusions to be drawn concerning significant advantages of one form of treatment compared to the other. Nevertheless, primary closure offers the advantages of quicker healing time, fewer post-operative visits and shorter time off work. When a primary closure can be carried out, it should be routinely considered for socio-economical and comfort reasons.

Background : Pilonidal sinus was first described by Dr. A.W. Anderson in 1847 and is often seen in the intergluteal region. It is a disease of mainly younger male and rarely affects after 40. Main causes for the formation of this sinus are hirsutism, sweating in the area, repeated maceration due to trauma, leading to breakage of the skin barrier, attracting hair inside which initiates a foreign body reaction leading to infection with abscess or sinus formation. Most common embarrassing situation is discharging sinus. The diagnosis is mainly on clinical ground. Though there are a lot of modalities of treatment but recurrence is still a challenge. We have adopted Limberg flap technique since 2012 with a least recurrent chance. Objectives : To prove that this procedure will be end up with lower morbidity & least chance of recurrence Methods : This prospective study was done jointly by the Department of Surgery of Central Medical College and Comilla Medical College Hospital. In this series 50 patients were selected from July 2012 to June 2017. Results : Out of 50 patients operated by Limberg flap technique 42(84%) were males and 8(16%) were females. Mean age was 27.3 years (range 18–37years). Of them,12(24%) were driver, 6(12%) police, 6(12%) teacher, 6(12%) student, 5(10%) worker, 4(8%) millitary army, 4(8%) housewife, 4 (8%)service holder, 2(4%) computer operator, 1(2%) doctor and 1(2%) were barber. In our study most common mode of presentation were chronic discharging sinuses 15(30%), beside this 12(24%) had multiple sinuses, 10(20%) had multiple pits,7(14%) had acute abscess and 6(12%) had unpleasant smell. Associated hirsutism were present in 30(60%) and absent in 20(40%) patients. One (2%) male patient had wound gap & discharge and six(12%) patients had flap edema. We have found no recurrence in follow up period. Conclusion : Pilonidal sinus is a notoriously recurrent disease, so treatment by this flap technique is the only hope of cure with lower morbidity.
