Brief summary

In this study the plan is to compare the circumcision performed with Alisklamp versus Dorsal Slit Sleeve method in terms of age, co-existing health conditions, surgery time, recovery period, tissue edema and bleeding, postoperative infection, wound healing, wound dehiscence, skin tunnel, and overall complications.

Detailed description

The study compares two circumcision techniques in children: the dorsal sleeve slit method and the alisclamp method. The dorsal sleeve slit technique, conducted under local anesthesia for about 20-30 minutes, involves cutting the penile skin dorsally, removing excess skin and prepuce, and suturing with 5/0 vicryl. The alisclamp method, also under local anesthesia, entails retracting the penile skin, placing a clamp, excising excess prepuce, and sending the patient home. The clamp is removed after 48 hours without anesthesia, with the total procedure lasting under 5 minutes. This research assesses these methods based on factors like age, co-existing health conditions, surgery time, recovery period, tissue edema and bleeding, postoperative infection, wound healing, wound dehiscence, skin tunnel, and overall complications.
