A Low Cost and Non-Complicated Circumcision; When, How, Where, Who Should Be Made by?

Abstract

Objective: Circumcision, in Turkey as a Muslim country is one of the most commonly performed operation. Although it seems to be a simple procedure, circumcision has many complications. The aim of this study is to retrospectively evaluated circumcision datas and discuss about 'a low cost and non-complicated circumcision; when, how, where, who should be made by'.

Methods: In this study, 4059 patients who were circumcised between 2011-2018 were included in the study.

Results: The mean age of 4059 patients was 4.1(± 3.29). The number of patients who had circumcised <2year was 1315 (32.40%), aged 2-6 who no recommended by child psychiatrists was 1154(28.43%) and >6 year was 1590(39.17%). 422(10.40%) of patients who underwent circumcision had additional surgical pathology. The most common additional surgical pathologies were inguinal hernia (n=212, 50.24%), undescended testes (n=100, 23.70%) and hydrocele (n=32, 7.58%).

Conclusion: Since the circulation of complicated surgical operations is intense, especially in the 3rd level public university hospitals it is more appropriate to perform circumcision in patients who require additional operation to reduce the cost and hospitalization. If additional operation is not required, circumcision should be performed by private health institutions or certified 1st level family physicians. In terms of childhood psychology, it is important to take measures to increase the level of knowledge of families on this issue, since a significant number of families still circumcised their children aged 2-6 years.
