Evaluation of the Impact of Pilonidal Cyst Recurrence on Quality of Life in Patients Previously Treated With Conventional Surgery or Laser Therapy

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to describe the impact of recurrence on the quality of life of patients treated with radical surgery and laser therapy.
