Abstract (Original Language): 
Konservatif tedaviye dirençli olgularda koksiks eksizyonunun sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Hastalar ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya bir yıldan daha uzun süre konservatif tedavi uygulanan ve cevap alınamayan toplam 13 olgu dahil edildi. Tüm hastalarda cerrahi tedavi olarak koksiks eksizyonu uygulandı. Bulgular: Sekiz olguda (%61) mükemmel, üç olguda (%23) iyi, bir olguda (%8) orta, bir olguda (%8) kötü sonuç elde edildi. Kötü sonuç elde edilen olguda aynı zamanda enfeksiyon gelişti. Yara bakımı ve antibiyoterapi ile düzeldi. Ameliyat sonrası dönemde hiçbir olguda rektum yırtığı veya prolapsusu görülmedi. Ayrıca ogularımızda reeksizyon ihtiyacı da olmadı. Sonuç: Koksidini tedavisi esas olarak konservatiftir, ancak konservatif tedaviye dirençli olgularda alternatif tedavi olarak koksiks eksizyonu uygulanabilir.
