Abstract
SUMMARY: Sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease (SPD) is a chronic an uncommon entity with a variety of alternatives for treatment. One of those is the excision of the sinus tract followed by a reconstruction with the rhomboid flap described by Dufourmentel. The aim of this paper is to describe the main phases of the technique. A detailed explanation of the key steps for the implementation of Dufourmentel flap for the treatment of SPD is exposed. Excision of sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus followed by Dufourmentel rhomboid flap is an alternative to consider in the treatment of pilonidal disease. © 2016, Universidad de la Frontera.
