Endoscopic pilonidal sinus treatment versus total excision with primary closure for sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease in the pediatric population

Retrospective comparison of endoscopic pilonidal sinus treatment (EPSiT) versus traditional excision with primary closure in 84 pediatric patients. EPSiT demonstrated comparable operative times, lower wound infection rates, and similar recurrence rates to conventional excision, supporting its viability as a minimally invasive alternative for managing sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease in children.
