Özet

OBJECTVES: This study presents early and long term (5 years) outcome of 61 complicated pilonidal sinus disease cases undergoing V-Y advancement flap method together with the literature data. METHOD: Data of 336 patients undergoing surgery for pilonidal sinus disease between 2008 and 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with defect size >= 10 cm, and more than one subcutaneous sinus tunnels were assumed to have complicated pilonidal sinus disease. A total of 61 patients were included in the study. Age, gender, type of surgery, duration of hospitalization, time of drain removal, pre-operative complications, and relapse rates at post-operative 5th year were analyzed. RESULTS: Of the 66 patients, 51 underwent unilateral V-Y advancement and 10 patients had bilateral V-Y plasty. Mean duration of operations was 6687 +/- 18.37 minutes for total, 61.02 +/- 12.30 minutes for unilateral V-Y plasty, and 9670 +/--15.04 minutes for bilateral V-Y plasty. Hemovac drains were removed at 5.59 +/- 1.91 days averagely, 5.16 +/- 1.37 in unilateral group, and 7.80 +/- 2.74 in bilateral V-Y plasty group. Of the 4 patients who developed wound site infection, 2 had unilateral and 2 had bilateral V-Y flap advancement. Postoperative hematomas developed in 2 patients with unilateral flap and one patient with bilateral flapss. Seroma occurred in 2 patients with unilateral flap and one patient with bilateral flaps. Dehiscence developed two patients, one patient from each group. The mean duration of hosptalization was 5.98 +/- 2.21 days; 5.49 +/- 1.52 in unilateral group, and 8.50 +/- 3.34 in bilateral group. Early or late relapse was not seen in any groups. CONCLUSON: V-Y advancement flap technique can be applied as an efficient method in the treatment of complicated pilonidal sinus disease due to low relapse and complication rates.
