Summary
The aim of the study was to compare the results of conservative and surgical treatment, to create an algorithm for the management of the disease, and gain more information about the etiology, pathogenesis, and course of the disease. The investigators hypothesise that surgical treatment of UPS will be better than conservative management in terms of recurrence rate, healing time, patient comfort and satisfaction, and cost effectiveness.
