To find out whether pilonidal sinus is more common among obese people.
Retrospective study from hospital records.
Two university hospitals, Turkey.
419 patients who were operated on for pilonidal sinus disease; and 213 age and sex matched patients with benign diseases other than pilonidal sinus disease and who were not morbidly obese acted as controls.
Comparison of body mass index (BMI) in the two groups.
Patients with BMI of 25-30 were classified as overweight (61/419, 15% compared with 28/213, 13%), and those with BMI of 30 or more as obese (7/419 compared with 4/213, 2% in each group). Mean (SD) BMI of patients with pilonidal sinus disease was 26.0 (3.9) compared with 25.6 (3.9) in the control group (p = 0.4).
Obesity alone is not an important factor in the aetiology of pilonidal sinus disease.
探究藏毛窦在肥胖人群中是否更为常见。
基于医院记录的回顾性研究。
土耳其的两家大学医院。
419例因藏毛窦疾病接受手术的患者;213例年龄和性别匹配、患有除藏毛窦疾病以外的良性疾病且非病态肥胖的患者作为对照。
两组患者体重指数(BMI)的比较。
BMI为25至30的患者被归类为超重(419例中的61例,占15%,而213例中的28例,占13%),BMI为30及以上的患者被归类为肥胖(419例中的7例,与213例中的4例相比,每组均为2%)。藏毛窦疾病患者的平均(标准差)BMI为26.0(3.9),而对照组为25.6(3.9)(p = 0.4)。
单纯肥胖并非藏毛窦疾病病因中的重要因素。
