“…Although formation of the sinus is mostly observed in those in their early 20s, it is, rarely, observed in those over the age of 45 years 10.

Pilonidal sinus of the chin: mistreated as a dental fistula

2016

Pilonidal sinus is a chronic inflammatory condition associated with penetration of hair particles into the skin. It is rare in the chin area and, to our knowledge, there is only one such reported case. A 56-year-old man was previously admitted to a private clinic, with a hard mass on his anterior buccal sulcus. Three of the patient's teeth were extracted as the swelling was thought to be associated with a dental infection. Because the fistula did not resolve, the patient was referred to our department. Following radiological and clinical examinations, the hard mass was reached intraorally and hair shafts were seen inside it. The area was closed primarily after cleaning the inflammatory tissues and the hairs. The recovery period was uneventful. In this case report, we present a pilonidal sinus encountered in the chin area, the wrong treatment initially given to the patient and the subsequent treatment carried out by us.

“…In recent studies, acquired factors were known responsible for the etiopathogenesis of the disease (1). Although the common site of disease is the sacrococcygeal region, some reports in the umbilicus (3), breast (4), intermammary (5), axillary (6), penis, vulvae (7), and nasal bridge (8) have also been reported with unignorable potentially incidentally finding of malignancy in the lesion (9). History and physical examination are usually sufficient for diagnosis, although the role of sonography in the better detection of lesion was reported in some studies (10).…”

Background and Aims: Pilonidal sinus in the sacrococcygeal region is a disease with high postoperative morbidity and discomfort for the patient. Although there are various therapeutic modalities to manage these patients, Controversy for choosing the best surgical technique in order to decrease the recurrence rate, patient discomfort, and Duration of disability after surgery still exists. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to compare results reached from two methods of surgery, tie-over procedure (TOP) and Karydakis procedure(KP) for the treatment of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus. Methods: In this study, 70 patients with a diagnosis of pilonidal sinus disease treated randomly with surgical excision and TOP or KP, in two 35 patients group, in the educational hospital by the same surgeon, between 2009 and 2010, and followed up until December 2019. Results: Achieved data after excision of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus indicate that primary closure of the wound by tie-over sutures have a better result than KP in order of Pain sore during the first month after surgery (P< 0.001), Duration of disability (P <0.001), wound repair time (P <0.001) and Patient satisfaction(P=0.019). Conclusion: Overall, these results show the TOP instead of KP, because higher acceptance results may be an alternative better for the treatment of chronic pilonidal sinus for the patients who have surgery scheduled for them.
