Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Your surgery will be performed under spinal anaesthesia with you lying on the table in prone position with your butt cheeks taped apart or in a prone jack-knife position.
The whole of the cyst and draining tract will be excised off and the defect closed by a flap.
Regards,
Dr. Ashish Verma
