Our study was planned as a prospective controlled randomized study. The study was started after the ethics committee approval received from Dışkapı Yıldırım Beyazıt Training and Research Hospital. (23.08.2021 118/01). Two groups of patients were planned in parallel. In the treatment of pilonidal sinus disease, in patients operated on with the fistulotomy and curettage technique, one group was followed up with classical dressing, while the other group was followed up with PRP (platelet-rich-plasma) and classical dressing. Wound infection, hematoma, length of hospital stay, recurrence, pain in the first postoperative week, and time to complete epithelialization of the wound (in days) were evaluated between the two groups.
