“…In our study 18 (62%) of the patients wereoverweight including the 5obese patients. In a study from Egypt 78% of the PSD patients wereobese (11), and arecent study indicates that high BMI might be apossible risk factor for PSD in adolescents (12).…”

Background and Aims: asymmetric techniques for surgery in pilonidal sinus disease (psd) have been reported to provide better results than simple excision and closure in the midline. the aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the results after introducing the Bascom asymmetric cleft lift procedure in our hospital on aday care basis.Material and Methods: from atotal of 33 patients operated from april 2002 to september 2004 with the Bascom asymmetric cleft lift technique, we were able to contact 29 who were invited to afollow up study.eighteen (62%) of these patients accepted aconsultation in the outpatient clinic while 11 (38%) were interviewed by phone.Results: at follow up mean 17 (range 10-27) months after the operation 24 (83%) of the wounds were healed while recurrences were present in 5(17%) of the patients. In two of the patients with recurrences errors in the procedures were identified. further results related to pre-, per-and postoperative conditions are discussed in this paper.Conclusion: early results after surgery for psd with the Bascom asymmetric cleft-lift technique are promising. the technique has now become our standard procedure for treating chronic, symptomatic psd.

“…8,[20][21][22] Cubukcu et al 23 did not detect a statistical significance between BMI and PSD. Because of the deeper structure of the intergluteal cleft and the fragility with wetness as a result of oversweat, obese people are more vulnerable to PSD.…”

The aim of this study is to analyze the risk factors for complications and recurrence in pilonidal sinus disease. The prospective study consisted of 144 patients with pilonidal sinus disease who were operated on at Dicle University Medical Faculty, Department of General Surgery, between February 2008 and December 2010. Patients receiving the Limberg flap totaled 106 (73.6%), while 38 (26.4%) had primary closure. Postoperative complications developed in 42 subjects (29.2%), and recurrence occurred in 19 (13.2%). The Limberg flap method was statistically considered as a risk factor for postoperative complications (P = 0.039). Regarding recurrence, family tendency (P = 0.011), sinus number (P = 0.005), cavity diameter (P = 0.002), and primary closure (P = 0.001) were found to be risk factors. Postoperative complication rate is higher in the Limberg flap method than primary closure method. The risk of recurrence is related to family tendency, sinus number, cavity diameter and anesthesia type and is also higher in primary closure.

The purpose of our study was to determine the risk factors such as lipid profile and smoking on the pathogenesis of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease (SPD) 7±1.3 and 34.5±5.7 years (p<0.001); 25.7±1.5 and 26.0±2, 5 kg/m2 (p=0.6), respectively. TC was 163.8±29.0 and 193.6±31.0 mg / dl,7 and 128.5±27.5 mg /dl, (p<0.001), (p<0.001) 7±1,3 yıl, 34,5±5,7 yıl (p<0.001), VKİ ortalaması 25,7±1,5 kg/m2,26,0±2,5 kg/m2 (p=0,6) idi. PSH ve kontrol gruplarında sırasıyla Total-kolesterol (TK) 163,8±29,0 mg/dl, 193,6±31,0 mg/dl (p<0.001), 103, 6±28,7 mg/dl, 128,5±27, 41,0±9,0 mg/dl, 48,0±10,5 mg/ dl p=0.006) olup, değerler arasında anlamlı fark vardı, fakat ve Trigliserid (TG) 94,3±47,9 mg/dl, 83,9±46,3 mg/dl olup, değerler arasında fark saptamadık (p=0.3). Sigara kullanımı PSH olan grupta 22/26 (%84,6), kontrol grubunda 16/42 (%38,1)
