Pilonidal sinus disease (PSD) is a common infection of the skin in the gluteal cleft, with a prevalence of 0.7% in the general population. Pilonidal sinus can occur in many different areas of the body but most are found in the sacrococcygeal area, in the natal cleft, approximately 5 cm from the anus. This is a prospective comparative randomized study conducted at Department of General Surgery, Imbaba General Hospital to compare the modified sinotomy with marsupialization versus excision with lay open in treatment of pilonidal sinus disease. Pre-study power analysis revealed that a sample size of 30 patients in each group would be sufficient with 80% power and a P value of 0.05. The perfect approach for the management of PNS should be simple, cause minimal pain, have best chance for success and least recurrence rate with low risk for complications, avoid general anesthesia, require minimal wound care, and ensure minimal inconvenience for the patient with rapid return to normal activity. Number of Patients participated in this study were n = 60 77% of the participants were males aged from 17-52 and 26.3 works as drivers. Operative time in modified sinotomy group ranged from 20-40 minutes and in lay open group ranged from 20-35 min (P-value: 0.07). Presence of hair in the back in the modified sinotomy group in 83.3% while in the lay open group 76.6% (P-value: 0.004). In conclusion,: we believe that execution of a minimally invasive surgical technique for PSD can be among the most important methods for treating not only primary PSD but also complicated and recurrent PSD cases.
