About this trial

The goal of this multicenter, prospective, observational study is to investigate factors associated with wound dehiscence following pilonidal sinus surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does the proximity of the pilonidal sinus to the anal verge influence the risk of postoperative wound dehiscence? How do the morphological stage of the disease and the surgical technique used affect wound healing outcomes? Patients undergoing pilonidal sinus surgery as part of routine clinical care will be enrolled prospectively across multiple centers. Clinical, anatomical, and surgical characteristics-including anal proximity, morphological stage, and type of surgical technique-will be recorded. Participants will be followed postoperatively, and wound outcomes will be assessed to identify factors associated with wound dehiscence.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult patients (≥18 years of age)

Diagnosis of pilonidal sinus disease

Patients undergoing pilonidal sinus surgery as part of routine clinical care

Ability to provide informed consent

Disqualifiers

Patients undergoing emergency surgery

Previous pilonidal sinus surgery at the same site

Inability to complete postoperative follow-up

Trial population

The study population consists of adult patients diagnosed with pilonidal sinus disease who undergo pilonidal sinus surgery as part of routine clinical care at participating centers. Eligible patients are enrolled prospectively and followed after surgery. Demographic, anatomical, and surgical characteristics are recorded for observational analysis of postoperative wound outcomes.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Postoperative Wound Dehiscence

Wound dehiscence is defined as partial or complete separation of the surgical wound occurring after pilonidal sinus surgery, as assessed during postoperative follow-up.

Time frame
Within 30 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes

1

Time to Complete Wound Healing

Time from surgery to complete epithelialization of the surgical wound without discharge or need for additional intervention.

Time frame
Up to 90 days after surgery
