Time trends in incidence of pilonidal sinus disease from 1996 to 2021: A Danish population‐based cohort study
The incidence of PSD has increased significantly over the last decades. The increase is driven primarily by men and boys, with the highest increase in incidence seen in early adolescence. The increased burden of disease is not reflected in the literature, and more studies are warranted to understand the drivers of this development.
