Summary

Chronic sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease is a common acquired condition associated with hirsutism that predominantly affects young male patients. Morbidity from this disease results in pain, embarrassment and loss of normal activities, causing absenteeism from work and school.

Various surgical procedures have been described for the treatment of both primary and recurrent pilonidal disease counting: open excision and healing by secondary intention, marsupialization, excision and primary closure (midline or off-midline), excision and repair by flap.

No single method has been accepted as the "gold standard", and none of them cancels the risk of recurrence.

The optimal therapy for pilonidal sinus disease should be simple, with good aesthetic outcomes and a low recurrence rate. It must allow the return to normal activities quickly.

The parasacral perforator flap seems to answer these entire requirements. No study compares this flap repair with the most common procedure, which is the open excision with secondary healing. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and the security of the reconstruction of the natal cleft with the perforator parasacral flap versus open excision with secondary healing in the treatment of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus.
