title: [Primary therapy after radical removal of sinus pilonidal].
abstract: The successful closure of the operative wound after removal of the Sinus pilonidalis, is linked, in our opinion, to the application of certain measures that should be taken during surgery. Specifically: 1) careful haemostasis, 2) correct positioning of effective deep drainage with exit into the left gluteal region, 3) diligent suture of the deep layers, 4) correction of tension at operative wound level. Two-year follow-up of 29 of 32 operated patients did not reveal relapses.
