Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to estimate simple excision and tension free primary closure and to study its effectiveness in terms of operating and heal-ing time, duration of hospital stay, degree of post operation complications, and rate of recurrence.Material and Methods: This is study included 78 patients, of whom 71 were (91%) males and 7 (9%) females, who underwent excision and tension free closure. The procedure was based on bilateral side flaps, which were released and dissected 2-3 cm from the edge of the wound. Patient’s age, gender, body mass index, wound healing, operation, drain removal, length of hospital stay, and complications and recurrence were analysed.Results: The study involved 78 patients, 71 (91%) males and 7 (9%) females. Median age of the patients was 28.5 years. Mean operation time was 44.6 min-utes . Sixty-one patients (78.2%) had full primary healing without any complication. No one had hematoma or seroma, but five (6.4%) cases had a minor wound infection and three (3.8%) obese patients developed recurrence. Mean length of hospital stay was 2.5 days , most patients went back to their work within 3 weeks. Median follow-up period was in a 26.2 weak range (1-51.4 weak). Five (6.41%) cases had wound infection and three (3.85%) developed recurrence.Conclusion: Excision and tension free primary closure were found to be simple procedures associated with lower rates of wound infection, shorter hospital stay, lower recurrence, early wound recovery and short period of being absent from work. Surgery can be easily performed and preferred for cases of non-recurrent pilonidal sinus and cyst.

Özet

Giriş ve Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, basit eksizyon ve gerilimsiz primer kapamayı değerlendirmek ve operasyon ve iyileşme süresi, hastanede kalış süresi, postoperatif komplikasyon derecesi ve tekrarlama oranındaki etkisini incelemekti.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya 71’i erkek (%91) ve 7’si kadın olmak üzere eksizyon ve gerilimsiz primer kapama cerrahi işlemi geçiren toplam 78 hasta dahil edildi. Cerrahi işlem, yara kenarından salınıp 2-3 cm kadar diseke edilen bilateral taraflı flepler ile gerçekleştirildi. Hastaların yaşı, cinsi-yeti, vücut kitle indeksi, yara iyileşmesi, operasyon, drenin çıkarılması, hastanede kalış süresi, komplikasyonlar ve rekürrans analiz edildi.Bulgular: Çalışmaya 71’i erkek (%91) ve 7’si kadın (%9) olmak üzere toplam 78 hasta dahil edildi. Hastaların ortanca yaşı 28,5 yıldı. Ortalama ope-rasyon süresi 44,6 dakika idi. Altmış bir hastada (%78,2) herhangi bir komplikasyon olmaksızın tam primer iyileşme gözlemlendi. Hiçbir hastada hematom veya seroma gelişmedi, ancak beş olguda (%6,4) hafif yara enfeksiyonu ve üç obez hastada (%3,8) rekürrens oluştu. Ortalama hastane-de kalış süresi 2,5 gündü ve çoğu hasta 3 hafta içerisinde çalışma hayatlarına geri döndü. Ortanca takip süresi 26,2 haftalık bir aralık içerisindeydi (1-51,4 hafta). Beş hastada (%6,41) yara enfeksiyonu, üç hastada da (%3,85) rekürrens vardı.Sonuç: Eksizyon ve gerilimsiz primer kapama, daha düşük yara enfeksiyonu oranı, daha kısa hastanede kalış süresi, daha düşük rekürrens, erken yara iyileşmesi ve iş hayatından kısa süreli uzaklaşma ile ilişkili basit operasyonlardır. Cerrahi müdahale kolaylıkla yapılabildiği gibi nüks olmayan pilonidal sinüs ve kist olgularında tercih edilen cerrahi işlem olabilir
