Pore Excision, Curettage, and Injection of a Tissue Scaffold as Treatment for Pilonidal Disease

Chronic pilonidal disease is a common problem with no ideal treatment. This is a prospective
study that will evaluate the results of surgical pore excision, curettage, and injection of
a regenerative tissue matrix, Cymetra, on patients with chronic pilonidal disease.

In addition, the study will evaluate the credibility and reproducibility of results within
other surgeons trained to perform the procedure. Data collection will focus on
post-operative wound failure, infection ratwes, analgesic requirements, time lost from work
or school, wound care requirements, and 6 month recurrence rates. These outcomes will be
compared to outcomes using conventional pilonidal surgical intervention using published
data.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Any patient with pilonidal diseas
