title: Congenital pilonidal sinus of the nose.
abstract: The aetiology of pilonidal disease, which occurs frequently in the sacrococcygeal region, is uncertain; whether it is congenital or acquired has been debated considerably. An instance of pilonidal disease, occurring at a previously unreported site, and of definite congenital origin, is reported.
