Incision and Drainage
This procedure involves making an incision in the cyst to drain the pus and fluid accumulation. This initial treatment for pilonidal abscess provides relief from pain and discomfort.
This procedure removes the entire pilonidal cyst along with any tracts or sinus openings. The wound is then closed using sutures. Furthermore, this procedure is suitable for smaller pilonidal cysts with minimal surrounding tissue involvement.
In this procedure, the wound is left open after the surgical removal to heal the wound inside out. Also, to promote granulation tissue formation and wound closure over time, the surgeon will cover the wound with a dressing guage.
This procedure is a specialized technique that has gained popularity for treating pilonidal disease effectively. It involves making an incision along the midline of the buttocks to remove the cyst, sinus tracts, and any infected tissue.
This procedure involves the creation of a V-shaped incision around the cyst, followed by the removal of the cyst and infected tissue. Furthermore, it encourages proper drainage resulting in a reduced risk of recurrences.
This technique involves the creation of Z-shaped incisions on both sides of the cyst to release tension. This helps to promote proper wound closure and improve wound healing thereby reducing tension on the incision site.
