Interventions

PROCEDURE

unroofing curettage

Surgery was performed with the patient lying in the prone position under local anesthesia. The tract was identified by passing small artery forceps along its length and was then opened by cutting directly down onto the forceps. The sinus and all its tracts were completely unroofed, and the base was curetted to remove all necrotic content, hair, and granulation tissue using a dry gauze. The fibrotic back wall was left as intact as possible to avoid delayed healing. Hemostasis was achieved using diathermy with no drainage needed.
