- Abstract
Aim: To bibliometrically identify the top 100 most cited articles from Turkey concerning pilonidal disease (PD) and analyze their features. Method: Databases searched in July 2021 included Web of Science (WoS) and Google Scholar to identify the most cited articles from studies about PD from Turkey. Each paper was evaluated in terms of publication year, number of authors, study group's institution, type and subject of the article, number of references, number of citations, and host journal. Results: The mean number of citations of the first 100 articles was 37.5. The articles were published in 37 different journals. The leading journal was Diseases of the Colon and Rectum. There was no correlation between journal impact factors and citation counts. Ninety-three of the articles were clinical trials. There was no correlation between the article type and the number of citations. The most frequently discussed topic was flap repairs, with 51 articles. In the last decade there was an increase in the number of articles concerning the application of phenol. The most productive decade was 2010-2019, with 51 articles. While Gülhane Military Medical Academy had the highest number of articles and total citations, Harran University Faculty of Medicine had the most cited article and the highest number of citations per article. In addition, 38 of the top 100 most cited papers in the WoS database were sent from Turkey. Conclusion: Turkey leads the world literature in articles on the PD. Diseases of the Colon and Rectum is the leading journal for Turkish PD studies. While flap repairs are the most discussed topic, the number of publications on the application of Phenol has increased in the last ten years.
