Surgical treatment of pilonidal sinus disease of the natal cleft has a significant failure rate. Reported here is the case of a 33-year-old man who first presented at the age of 18 with a pilonidal sinus.
The patient's scar was treated with a ruby laser using a pulse length of 2 ms and energy densities of 6.0-7.2 J/cm(2). Treatment was performed five times at 6-week intervals.
The sinus healed and has not recurred to date, 6 months after the last treatment.
It is felt that there may be a future for this treatment, either as primary treatment or as an adjunct to surgery in refractive cases. It could also be useful in preventing the growth of hairs into wounds that have been left open and allowed to granulate.
骶尾部藏毛窦疾病的手术治疗失败率较高。本文报告了一例33岁男性病例，该患者18岁时首次出现藏毛窦。
使用脉冲长度为2毫秒、能量密度为6.0 - 7.2焦耳/平方厘米的红宝石激光治疗患者的瘢痕。每隔6周进行一次治疗，共进行了5次。
窦道愈合，自最后一次治疗6个月以来至今未复发。
认为这种治疗方法可能具有前景，可作为主要治疗方法或用于难治性病例的手术辅助治疗。它在防止毛发长入开放并已形成肉芽的伤口方面也可能有用。
