Minimally invasive surgery for pilonidal sinus

This study compares two minimally invasive ways to treat a pilonidal sinus (a small hole or tunnel near the tailbone) that hasn't been treated before. You'll get either laser treatment plus a small procedure called pit-picking, or pit-picking alone. The goal is to see which works better with less pain and faster recovery.

This study compares operative (surgery) versus non-operative (non-surgery) treatment options for pilonidal disease. It may help find which approach works better for people at Stanford Healthcare.

This study tests whether laser hair removal can help prevent pilonidal disease from coming back in people with darker skin. It is designed for teenagers and young adults who have had pilonidal disease but are not currently having a flare-up.

This trial tests a treatment for pilonidal sinus, a small tunnel in the skin near the tailbone that can cause pain and infection. It looks at how well the procedure works for people with symptoms but without complications.

This trial compares two minimally invasive treatments (SILAC and phenol) for pilonidal sinus disease, a skin condition that can cause small tunnels or cysts near the tailbone. The goal is to see which option works better with less recovery time.

This study looks at how well laser surgery works for pilonidal cysts, including cysts that came back after other treatments. It aims to help doctors understand if laser treatment is a good option.
