Sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease is a common chronic inflammation of the natal cleft and is mainly seen in young adults. Authors of some earlier works regarded the condition as congenital. Recently, it has become widely accepted that the condition is acquired, and thought to originate from hair follicles. Many treatment options has described in literature, thus in this study we present our results with Limberg flap reconstruction on pilonidal sinus disease. 38 patients underwent limberg flap reconstruction for pilonidal sinus disease enrolled in this study. No bleeding has occur intra and postoperatively, 2 patients developed urinary retention (%5.2), on 1 patient with diabetes mellitus wound dehiscence has developed which has treated with 3 week long simple debridement method (%2.6). 1 patient developed superficial infection treated with basic antibiotics (%2.6). No other complications has developed. No recurrence has seen in -mean -11.2 month period. We think limberg flap closure on pilonidal sinus disease is an effective and safe option.
