sinus surgery or EPSIT<\/strong> is a modern technique for the treatment of pilonidal disease and is usually applied in pediatric and adolescent patients, as it is practically painless and has a much faster recovery than open techniques.<\/p>\n<p>As is known, there are several treatments for pilonidal disease, surgical and non-surgical, applied to heal the acute or chronic inflammatory condition of the subcutaneous fatty tissue that occurs in response to a retention of hair follicles in the intergluteal fold, causing a pilonidal cyst or abscess.<\/p>\n<p>Among the most used techniques is the <strong>Endoscopic Pilonidal Cyst Surgery or EPSIT in Madrid<\/strong>, which was developed by the Italian physician Piercarlo Meinero, which consists in the visual identification of the cyst and its entire path by introducing a small camera inside the cyst, through the same cyst orifices to the skin and without making an additional wound.<\/p>\n<p>The endoscopic camera allows to see the inside of the cyst at high magnification, so that the specialist can perform the complete removal of the Pilonidal cyst from the inside, using several devices and very small and suitable working forceps. It is usually performed under sedation and local anesthesia, since the surgical wound is very small, with little pain and the aesthetic result is natural and optimal. <\/p>\n<p>EPSIT offers an option to achieve a perfect cleaning and elimination of the pilonidal cyst, obtaining an effectiveness of more than 95% in all cases treated.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section
