DOI: 10.1007/s00384-025-04959-x
Abstract: Paediatric pilonidal sinus disease is considered a separate entity of disease due to differing recurrence dynamics. However, there are almost no data on real-world surgical care and practice patterns for children and adolescents. We therefore… read more here.
