Background: The term Naadi Vrana is meaning sinus. Its classification and management including various local and systemic measures are the main objectives of the classical text. Sinus is a granulation tissue-lined blind channel that extends from an epithelial surface into the surrounding tissues. Sinus means “Hollow” or “A bay”(Latin). There are 8 types of Naadi Vrana like Vaatik naadi, Paitik naadi, Kaphaj naai, Vaat-Pitaj naadi, Pit-Kaphaj naadi, Vaat-Kaphaj naadi, Sannipatik naadi and Aagantuja naadi. The prevalence of pilonidal illness is estimated to be around 26 per 100,000 people. The incidence rate of pilonidal disease is approximately 0.7%.
