Abstract:

Male circumcision is increasing in popularity due to its medical benefits, including reducing HIV prevalence. It is commonly performed by both health and non-health professionals, with most circumcisions occurring during the neonatal period. Studies suggest the benefits outweigh the risks, though complications can occur. This study aimed to determine the clinical outcomes of circumcisions and the prevalence of adverse events of circumcision in the Volta region of Ghana. A five-year retrospective descriptive and analytic study was conducted at Ho Teaching Hospital, using a structured data extra

Abstract:

Circumcision remains a controversial operation. Most procedures are performed in the neonatal period and avoid general anesthesia. Legislation driven by policy statements from the American Academy of Pediatrics led to significant changes in circumcisions in Florida with a shift to non-neonatal procedures as a result of costs. We sought to study the prevalence and financial implications of nonneonatal circumcisions in Florida.

<strong>Abstract</strong> Male circumcision is one of the earliest operations performed by humans. This procedure has the potential to decrease the risk of sexually transmitted diseases such as human papillomavirus, genital ulcer disease, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection [1]. Additionally, it improves penile topical hygiene and reduces the incidence of balanitis and penile cancer. This is indeed influenced by several factors such as culture, beliefs, ethnicity, tradition, and health factors. In terms of community health, circumcision has advantages in preventing HIV disease.

Doctors Anderson and Schwarz have misinterpreted the data from our recent report.1 We found an increasing number of circumcisions among older boys precisely at the time the circumcision frequency rate was increasing among neonates. We suspect the increases in both populations was due to several factors—the 1989 Ad Hoc Statement on Circumcision and the general increased awareness of the potential health benefits of the procedure. I am astounded that these physicians have stated there are no other countries in the western world with a rise in the rate of neonatal circumcision.

One would presume that a similar study on the tonsifiectomy rate would show that because young children no longer undergo routine removal of this organ, the operation is now more commonly done in older children.

Introduction: Aside from religious circumcisions, the indications for circumcision are few. However, in the cultural context, many patients are unnecessarily referred for circumcision for physiological phimosis (adhesions).

Abstract:

Introduction: Notwithstanding the recommendations from the Canadian Pediatric Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics on the indications for neonatal circumcision, this procedure is still common in North America and throughout the world. Our purpose is not to argue whether this procedure should be done, but rather to examine who is doing it, their training, how it is performed and how can we prevent unsatisfactory results and complications. The objective is to identify what fields of knowledge require improvement and then design a teaching module to improve the outcomes of neonatal

Abstract:

We sought to quantify early deaths following neonatal circumcision (same hospital admission) and to identify factors associated with such mortality. We performed a retrospective analysis of all infants who underwent circumcision in an inpatient hospital setting during the first 30 days of life from 2001 to 2010 using the National Inpatient Sample. Over 10 years, 200 early deaths were recorded among 9 833 110 subjects (1 death per 49 166 circumcisions). Note: this figure should not be interpreted as causal but correlational as it may include both undercounting and overcounting of deaths attribu

Abstract:

Background. Circumcision is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures in men. Approximately 20 % of men in the world have undergone circumcision. It helps to prevent infections and inflammatory diseases of the lower urinary tract and reduces the risk of sexually transmitted diseases, helps to reduce the risk of developing glans cancer in men and cervical dysplasia in women. Being aware of complications that may occur after circumcision allows to conduct the surgery in a way that minimizes the risk of complications.Aim.

Abstract:

Voluntary male medical circumcision (VMMC) reduces HIV acquisition by up to 60%. Kenya has successfully scaled up VMMC to an estimated 91% of eligible men and boys in certain regions in combination due to VMMC and cultural circumcisions. VMMC as a program is implemented regionally in traditionally non-circumcising counties where the prevalence is still below 91%, ranging from 56.4% to 66.7%. Given that funding toward VMMC is expected to decline in the coming years, it is important to identify what models of service delivery are most appropriate and efficient to sustainably meet the VMMC needs

In Reply.— Do neonatal circumcisions need infant consent? Obviously, no. Because neonates are minors, the burden is on the parents to make the necessary decision based on informed consent. The general belief in the past 10 to 15 years has been that there is no medical indication for routine performance of circumcision in the newborn. However, we recently published data demonstrating a decreased incidence of urinary tract infections during the first year of life in circumcised male infants.1

Only 3/40 neonates with haemophilia experienced mild postcircumcision bleeding. No major or any life-threatening bleeds were encountered. As the therapy administered was minima

Abstract:

The article attempts to trace the evolution of circumcision as it depicted in the Tanakh, from the narrative of Zipporah circumcising her son (Exodus 4:24–26) to the story of God’s covenant with Abraham (Genesis 17:10–14). Through the analysis of multiple biblical texts and the semantics of the phrase “blood groom,” it is suggested that circumcision, in its original form, was a part of the wedding ceremony, a rite of passage into a new lineage and social status. Being an integral part of the life-cycle rituals of an archaic society, circumcision couldn’t simply be forgotten or entirely replace

To the Editor.— The diligent and thoughtful efforts of Wiswell and his collaborators in pursuing the original observation of Ginsburg and McCracken,1 that urinary tract infections in male infants occurred more frequently among those who were uncircumcised, have led to some rethinking of previous recommendations regarding routine circumcision. In the most recent report, Wiswell and Geschke2 neatly summarize the minimal risk of properly performed circumcisions and provide important new information regarding the serious threat to health and life itself that urinary tract infections pose to afflic
