What this Trial Is About
This observational study investigates factors linked to wound opening (dehiscence) after pilonidal sinus surgery. It aims to find out whether how close the pilonidal sinus is to the anal verge affects the risk of wound problems after surgery. The study also looks at how the stage of the disease and the surgical method used impact wound healing. Researchers enroll adults having pilonidal sinus surgery as part of their routine care at multiple centers. Participants receive standard pilonidal sinus surgery chosen by their doctor based on usual practices. The study does not assign any experimental treatments. Key details like how close the wound is to the anal verge, the disease stage, and the surgical technique are recorded. Patients are followed after surgery to monitor wound outcomes. During the study, researchers observe patients after surgery and track wound healing, especially noting if the wound reopens within 30 days. They also measure how long it takes for the wound to fully heal up to 90 days after surgery. This follow-up helps identify factors influencing wound healing. The study runs until December 2026 and involves adults aged 18 years and older.
