Official title
A Multicenter, Prospective, Observational Study on Factors Affecting Wound Dehiscence in Pilonidal Sinus Surgery: The Impact of Anal Proximity, Morphological Stage, and Surgical Technique (ORIPIS)
Overview
The goal of this multicenter, prospective, observational study is to investigate factors associated with wound dehiscence following pilonidal sinus surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the proximity of the pilonidal sinus to the anal verge influence the risk of postoperative wound dehiscence? How do the morphological stage of the disease and the surgical technique used affect wound healing outcomes? Patients undergoing pilonidal sinus surgery as part of routine clinical care will be enrolled prospectively across multiple centers. Clinical, anatomical, and surgical characteristics-including anal proximity, morphological stage, and type of surgical technique-will be recorded. Participants will be followed postoperatively, and wound outcomes will be assessed to identify factors associated with wound dehiscence.
Interventions
- Other No intervention (observational study)
This is an observational study. No experimental intervention is assigned. Surgical procedures are performed as part of routine clinical care according to standard practice and are not determined by the study protocol.
Primary outcome measures
- Postoperative Wound Dehiscence [Time frame: Within 30 days after surgery]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
- Time to Complete Wound Healing [Time frame: Up to 90 days after surgery]
