Alisklamp and Dorsal Slit Sleeve Circumcision

Overview

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.

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.
