Use of the rhomboid flap in pilonidal sinus
Ann R Coll Surg Engl.
1986 Jan.
Abstract
Our experiences with transposed rhomboid flaps in the treatment of pilonidal disease are described. Results show that primary healing occurred in all twenty patients in our series, with a maximum inpatient hospital stay of four days. A single recurrent sinus has occurred during a follow-up time of eighteen months.
