Minimally Invasive Approach to Gastrointestinal Tract Duplication Cysts in Children

Abstract

Çocuklarda GİS duplikasyonlarında minimal invaziv girişimler güvenilir ve kolay uygulanabilir yöntemlerdir. Laparoskopik yaklaşım GİS duplikasyonun tanısını onaylatmada, yerinin doğru olarak tanımlanmasında ve tedavisinde etkili, güvenli ve minimal invaziv bir yöntemdir.

Comparative Analysis of Two Different Treatment Methods in Pilonidal Sinus Disease in Childhood: Phenol and Surgical Excision

“…Pilonidal sinus disease (PSD) that mainly affects teenagers and young adults with higher incidence in boys is a common infectious and chronic inflammatory problem in the pediatric age group, with no precise incidence data [2,3]. The pediatric incidence is estimated as %0.26 approximately [3,4].…”

“…Several therapeutic techniques have been described, from minimally invasive approaches to gross surgical resection techniques with or without flaps were used with similar success rates for PSD [7][8][9]. In the pathogenesis, factors such as obesity, hairy body structure, poor hygiene, local irritation, a sedentary lifestyle, and prolonged sitting times have been described as causative factors and the most common reasons for applying to the outpatient clinic due to pilonidal sinus disease can be listed as pain and/or discharge and/or abscess while sitting [3,4,7,10,11]. Pilonidal sinus disease is most commonly seen in the sacrococcygeal region, but it can be seen in any area where there is hair, such as the navel or over the sternum [1,12].…”

“…This is because the ideal treatment method is still not clear. There are many factors that affect the failure of pilonidal sinus disease treatment [3,4,7,10,11]. In this study, we aimed to compare the results of two different treatment methods in childhood pilonidal sinus disease.…”
