AbstractCervicofacial hemangiomas treated from January 2001 to December 2009 was clinically evaluated. This retrospective clinical study consisted of 42 females and 20 males with the age ranged from 20 days to 55 years. The lesions were present with-in first month in 45 patients (72.6%). Two patterns of tumor growth were evident: focal and diffuse. There were 59 focal hemangiomas (80.8%) and 14 diffuse hemangiomas (19.2%). Complications noted at the time of first consultation include residual skin changes in the in 35 patients (56.5%), obstruction of orifices in 14 patients (22.6%), ulceration in 6 patients (9.7%), and infection occurred in 2 patients (3.2%). Overall, there is reduction in size and improvement in color and texture of lesion following intervention in each group. No significant difference in outcome was observed in between groups with respect to change in size and texture. However, improvement in color showed statistically significant difference and combined treatment modality and surgical treatment was found to be better.

Background: Pilonidal sinus is a chronic disease usually involving the sacrococcygeal area. Various treatment modalities exist, yet few comparison studies exist to compare the efficacy of one modality over the other. Hence this randomized clinical study was undertaken as an attempt to compare the outcomes of pilonidal sinus following Limberg flap procedure and primary closure.Methods: 60 patients undergoing surgery for pilonidal sinus disease were considered for the study. 30 patients underwent excision and primary closure and 30 patients underwent Limberg flap repair. They were followed up for 1 year. Duration of hospital stay, duration of inability to work, postoperative infection, wound dehiscence, and postoperative recurrence in a follow up period were recorded. Descriptive statistics, chi- square tests and independent t-test are the statistical tools employed.Results: Mean age was 29.83±4.99 years. Male:female ratio was 5.66:1. The mean duration of hospitalization in group A was significantly less (p<0.05) than group B. The patients in group B returned early to routine work (21.56±3.92 days) as compared to 30.5±5.92 days in group A (p<0.05). 5 of 30 patients in group A and 2 of 30 in group B developed surgical site infection. (p>0.05. 4 patients developed wound dehiscence in group A only which was found to be statistically significant.Conclusions: Limberg flap in treatment of pilonidal sinus is associated with shorter hospitalization, early return to routine work and less wound dehiscence as compared with excision and primary closure. Wound infections are comparable with both the modalities.

Background: Best surgical treatment of pilonidal sinus is always challenging for a surgeon in term of recurrence. Evaluation of surgical treatment of pilonidal sinus; primary midline closure after elliptical excision versus rhomboid excision with limberg flap reconstruction versus open excision and healing by secondary intention of sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease.Methods: In this prospective randomized study of 75 patients of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus were divided into 3 equal groups through randomly assigning the type of surgery. 25 patients of each group. Group I was operated by primary midline closure after elliptical excision, Group II rhomboid excision with limberg flap reconstruction and Group III open excision and healing by secondary intention.Results: Data was assessed between three groups in term of operative time, healing time and recurrence over a follow up period of 1 year. Mean operative time in group I (primary midline closure after elliptical excision) was 38.7±5.1 minutes, group II (Rhomboid excision with Limberg flap reconstruction) was 124.2±5.6 minutes, group III (Open excision and healing by secondary intention) was 20.6±5.6 minutes. Mean healing time for group I was 19.0±7.4 days, for group II was 17.0±8.0 days and for group III was 60±9.6 days. Recurrence occurred in 3 patients in group I and nil in group II and III.Conclusions: Rhomboid excision with limberg flap reconstruction is better choice than primary midline closure after elliptical excision and open excision in terms of healing time and reoccurrence in cases of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus.
