About this study

Pilonidal disease is a common disorder of the sacrococcygeal region. It comprises a variety of problems, including infection/abscess and the development of a chronic sinus cavity. Incidence varies across countries and races .The cause remains controversial. Both congenital and acquired causes have been postulated Excision with a simple lay-open or performing marsupialization both result in a midline wound that takes several weeks to heal and there is a significant recurrence rate because of the open portal for hair insertion.so here we apply a new minimally invasive excision with cyanoacrylate dressing
