Abstract Introduction Pilonidal disease continues to be managed with varying surgical techniques. We review results with Bascom cleft lift comparing to other practices at our institution. Methods All elective procedures for pilonidal disease reviewed from December 2017 to December 2019. Patient demographics, previous emergency and elective procedures for pilonidal disease, follow-up, dehiscence and recurrence rates, and all-cause morbidity were examined retrospectively. Results In the study period there were 106 procedures. Average age was 27 years (range 15-64). Male to female ratio was 83:23. Procedures were excision and primary closure (48), excision and packing (19), rhomboid flap (2), Bascom cleft lift flap (31), other rotational/perforator or V to Y flaps (6). Rates of previous elective procedures in the flap procedures versus excision group were 31% and 10% respectively (P = 0.01). Rates of previous emergency procedures in the flap-procedures versus excision group were 41% and 31% respectively (P = 0.40). In 50 procedures there was a documented follow up encounter at a mean time of 55 days (median 34 days, range 2-239). Dehiscence (partial and full) in flap procedures versus excision and closure was 33% and 27% respectively (P = 0.64). Recurrence rates in flap procedures versus excision +/- closure or packing were 0% and 8% respectively (P = 0.16). Conclusion Flap procedures have a lower rate of recurrence and comparable dehiscence rates despite being performed in patients with higher rates of prior procedures for pilonidal disease. Bascom cleft lift was the simplest flap procedure most commonly performed and matches the results of more complex flaps.
