Abstract：
:The authors report their personal experience of the "excision and primary suture" operating technique in the surgical treatment of pilonidal sinus. A rapid recovery by postoperative day 10 was achieved in 58 out of 60 cases treated (96.7%). Dehiscence of the surgical wound was observed in 2 cases (3.3%) following ischemic lesion caused by decubitus of the cutaneous margins and healing occurred by second intenti. No cases of short- or long-term recidivation were observed. The advantages of this method are the early return to working activities, minor patient discomfort and the reduced risk that the surgical would might become infected. Three basic stages for the successful outcome of this type of surgery have been identified as follows: 1) Although and accurate tricotomy of the sacro-coccigeal region. Antibiotic therapy is started about 2 hours before surgery. 2) The precise execution of the surgical technique. 3) The continuation of antibiotic therapy until postoperative day 7. Compressive medication is removed on postoperative day 4. If these three basic stages are respected, no cases of recidivation will occur.
