A doença pilonidal descreve um espectro de apresentações clínicas, variando de cistos e tratos sinusais assintomáticos contendo pelos a grandes abscessos sintomáticos da área sacrococcígea que tendem a recorrer. É encontrado predominantemente em homens brancos na segunda e terceira décadas e acredita-se que resulte da penetração do pelo nos tecidos com a formação de tratos sinusais e uma resposta granulomatosa tipo corpo estranho. Os fatores de risco para a doença pilonidal incluem sexo masculino, etnia caucasiana, ocupações sentadas, obesidade, fenda natal profunda e presença de pelo na fenda natal. | |||
