Circumferential perianal pilonidal sinuses.
Two cases of recurrent perianal suppuration are described in which the underlying pathology is believed to be pilonidal sinus disease affecting the perianal skin directly. This has given rise to intersphincteric fibrosis and, in one case, a subcutaneous track almost completely encircling the anus. The pathogenesis of the condition and its possible relationship to previous surgery are discussed.

The lesion sites were as follows: one on the penis, two on the scalp, two on the abdomen, one on the neck, two in the groin and two in the axilla. Abdominal and penile ...
متن کاملMicrobiology of infected pilonidal sinuses.
Aspirates of pus from infected pilonidal sinuses in 75 patients showed bacterial growth. Anaerobic bacteria only were recovered in 58 (77%) specimens, aerobic bacteria only in three (4%), and mixed aerobic and anaerobic bacteria in 14 (19%). Two hundred and nine isolates were recovered: 147 anaerobes (2.0 isolates a specimen) and 62 aerobes (0.8 a specimen). The predominant anaerobes were Bacte...

متن کاملNd-YAG Laser Treatment of Pilonidal Cysts
A 38 year-old girl with a recurrent suppurative pilonidal cyst was successfully treated causally with an Nd-YAG laser, and with no recurrence at the 3-month follow-up. A similar success is observed for another 15 consecutively treated patients, including suppurative cases. The effect could be attributable to the ability of the YAG-laser to operate at a wave-length of 1064 nm and to penetrate th...
