How Endoscopic Pilonidal Sinus Treatment (EPSiT/SiLaC) is performed
Endoscopic pilonidal sinus treatment (EPSiT/SiLaC) is often performed when inflammation is controlled. A special endoscope is inserted through a small opening in the skin, and hair and granulation tissue are removed under direct vision by irrigation and curettage. If necessary, the inner wall is coagulated with radiofrequency or laser to achieve hemostasis. A small incision plasty and drainage are performed as appropriate. Pay attention to exudate and signs of infection after surgery, and gradually resume daily activities, with the goal of smooth healing from the inside out. The above is general health information and not medical advice; specific information is subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
