Randomised clinical trial to test the phenolization in sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease.

ABSTRACT: To test the efficacy and safety of phenolization in uncomplicated Sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease (SPD) the phenolization in uncomplicated SPD is feasible and secure in selected patients in observational studies. The greatest benefits are obtained to reduce the length of sick leave (LSL) and complications. Single-center randomised controlled clinical trial. Patients were recruited at University Hospital of Tarragona Joan XXIII of Spain. Patients were randomised into two treatment groups. All patients with uncomplicated sacrococcygeal disease, localised in the midline and with only 1 fistulous orifice. The patients were randomly assigned to the phenolization group (PhG) or conventional-surgery group (CsG). Both groups were managed without admission. The main endpoint was the recurrence of sacrococcygeal disease. Secondary endpoints included time of sick leave, complications, and readmission. 124 patients were included in the study. No disease recurrence was observed in either group. Clinical follow-up was carried out with a mean of 493.8 days (SD 6.59). The LSL was shorter in the PhG (mean 19.63 days, SD 28.15) than in the CSG (43.95 days, SD 38.60). The LSL reduction was -24.31 days (P .002). The phenolization in selected SPD is a safe and feasible procedure in selected patients. This approach could become the standard of care for patients with selected Sacrococcygeal pilonidal.

Project description:BackgroundPilonidal sinus is a common health problem. The current study aimed to compare the impact of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with that of minimally invasive techniques in terms of pain reduction, return to daily activities, quality of life, and duration of wound healing after open excision and secondary closure.MethodsPatients who were over 18 years old and had chronic PS disease between March 2018 and January 2019 were enrolled and randomly divided into three groups. Open surgery and moist dressings were applied to patients in group A. Open surgery followed by PRP application was performed on patients in group B. Group C underwent curettage of the sinus cavity followed by application of PRP. In this prospective randomized controlled study, patients completed questionnaires (including the Nottingham Health Profile (NHP), Short Form-36 (SF-36) and clinical information) before and after surgery. Demographics, preoperative characteristics, healing parameters, and quality-of-life scores were evaluated and calculated before and after surgery.Results and conclusionThe cavity volume and wound-healing time were compared among the groups on postoperative days 0, 2, 3, 4, and 21. Each patient was followed up throughout the process of wound healing, and follow-up was continued afterward to monitor the patients for recurrence. Due to the nature of the treatment that group C received, this group achieved shorter healing times and smaller cavity volume than the other groups. In contrast, the recovery time per unit of cavity volume was significantly faster in group B than in the other groups. Overall postoperative pain scores were significantly lower for both PRP groups (open surgery, group B; minimally invasive surgery, group C) than for group A (p < 0.001) and showed different time courses among the groups. In the treatment of PS disease, PRP application improves postoperative recovery in that it speeds patients' return to daily activities, reduces their pain scores and increases their quality of life. Trial registration The current study is registered on the public website ClinicalTrials.gov (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier number: NCT04697082; date: 05/01/2021).
