- Pilonidal Sinus Treatment (EPSiT) is a very innovative method - performed only with a tiny 5 mm incision on the sinus itself, with no ugly scars and painful wound medications performed in a Day Care setting.
- After the incision is made, a fistuloscope (Meinero fistuloscope) is gently inserted. This allows the surgeon to directly see and treat all sinus tracts.
- The sinus is destroyed with the coagulation performed with a monopolar electrode and then debris are gently removed with a micro-brush.
- The result is a tiny 5 mm incision, without any post-operative pain and immediate possibility to resume daily activities like walking, showering and even sport.
- This technique is especially designed for professional football players and other sport competitors needing to early resume daily activity but gives a big advantage to all patients, therefore avoiding the long postoperative course of the traditional techniques and the ugly scar.
- There is no need of any paying particular attention, except a twice a day washing with saline solution of the small incision.
- Esthetic results are excellent already after 7-10 days with nearly 0 recurrence rate and absolutely no pain.
