Prospective study of limberg flap for treatment of recurrent pilonidal sinus under local anaesthesia

Conclusions Our study favours the rhomboid flap for recurrent sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus, especially for complex sinuses, and found it suitable for cases where simpler operations have failed. It allows early return to full activity and has very low recurrence and complication rates which may outweigh the disadvantage of an unfavourable cosmetic appearance.
