8 Months - 30 Years

Interventions

  • Hypochlorous Acid — PROCEDURE
    Hypochlorous acid will be used as the wound irrigation solution instead of the saline which is currently considered standard. All other aspects of the surgery will be the same across both arms.

Study Details

The purpose of this study is to determine the best method for cleaning wounds during surgery for patients with Stage 3 pilonidal disease. The investigators will compare the standard wound cleaning solution, saline, with a different solution called hypochlorous acid (Vashe, Urgo Medical) to see which one helps wounds heal faster after surgery.
