to the preputium
30. • The incision is made distal to the hemostat using a CO2 laser, applying
350 millijoules energy at 40 pulses/second in continuous mode.

• A chlorhexidine wound covering and Coban bandage for wound care
31. Guillotine method
• The foreskin is released
• Mosquito forceps are applied to the tip of the foreskin ventrally and
dorsally and the foreskin protracted.
• A straight forcep is applied along the lower foreskin above the glans.
• The foreskin is excised by cutting above the forceps using a large
scalpel blade.

mucosal cuff.

• local topical triple antibiotic ointment
• Urine tract infection?
• A reduced risk of UTI is a benefit of circumcision!
38. Urethral injury
• if too much upward traction is placed on the foreskin prior to clamp

41. Glans injury
• The glans is inadequately protected at the time the foreskin is excised,
or if the glans is caught in the clamp apparatus when the foreskin is
excised
• Penile amputation
• successful reattachment is possible if performed within eight hours of injury
• Necrosis of the glans secondary to ischemia
• Electrocautery

• Hypertrophic scar or keloid formation

• Topical betamethasone
• Revision involves excision of the scar, often with skin flap coverage to

Editor's Notes
Conclusions of the 2012 Circumcision Policy Statement by the American Academy of Pediatrics Task
Force on Circumcision3
Systematic evaluation of English-language peer-reviewed literature from 1995 through 2010 indicates that preventive health
benefits of elective circumcision of male newborns outweigh the risks of the procedure. Benefits include significant reductions in
the risk of urinary tract infection in the first year of life and, subsequently, in the risk of heterosexual acquisition of HIV and the
transmission of other sexually transmitted infections.
By using
these rates and the increased risks suggested from the literature, it is estimated that 7 to 14 of 1000 uncircumcised
male infants will develop a UTI during the first year of life, compared with 1 to 2 infants among 1000 circumcised male infants.
Good evidence of the protective effect of male circumcision is available from two of the
large randomized controlled trials in Africa. In the South African study, the
incidence of HSV-2 was 34% lower in circumcised men.73 In the Uganda
study, the risk of HSV-2 infection (adjusted for other factors) was 28% lower in circumcised men.71
The prevalence of infection was lower for the 2 viral types with the highest risk
of causing cancer, however, at 4.7% for
HPV type 16 and 1.9% for HPV type 18.95
There is good evidence that male circumcision
is protective against all
types of HPV infection (nononcogenic
and oncogenic). Two prevalence studies
with good evidence found a 30% to 40%
reduction in risk of infection among
circumcised men.96,97
The evidence does not demonstrate
any relationship between circumcision
and gonorrheal infection.85,86,92–94

Mark the intended outer line of the incision, as described above
(Fig. 5.33), with a V shape, pointed towards the frenulum, on the
underside (ventral aspect) of the penis (Fig. 5.34). The apex of the V
should correspond with the midline raphe
It may be necessary in older boys to trim the mucosal layer of
the foreskin to 2–3 mm from the corona. If this layer is left too
long, the suture line can slip back over the glans, constricting it
and making it appear as if the foreskin has not been removed
(“concealed glans”). Control any significant bleeding by
clipping the blood vessel with an artery forceps and then tying.
Bipolar diathermy may be used, if available. Minor bleeding
can be controlled with simple pressure for five minutes.
Check that there is no bleeding. If all is well, the child
can be sent home and looked after in the normal way,
including normal washing and use of nappies. The rim of tissue
distal to the ligature will become necrotic and the Plastibell will
drop off after 5–8 days. Alternatively the infant can be checked
after 36–48 hours and the ligature cut.

Guillotine method: the foreskin is released. Mosquito forceps are applied to the tip of the foreskin ventrally and dorsally and the foreskin protracted. A straight forcep is applied along the lower foreskin above the glans. Care must be taken to ensure that the glans is not caught within the forceps. The foreskin is excised by cutting above the forceps using a large scalpel blade. The inner mucosa is trimmed with scissors, leaving an adequate mucosal cuff.
