Circumcision by plastibell technique: Boon for Low Income Countries (LIC) - A Case Series

Abstract

Introduction: Circumcision is a religious practice as well as a surgical procedure having its risks and benefits. There are several surgical methods for circumcision. The choice depends on skill and preference of medical personnel performing the surgery. The plastibell technique is one of the commonly performed procedures done under local anaesthesia, mostly on new-borns, infants and young children. The results of the technique have been evaluated in many studies throughout the world. We have done a large number of cases and present the results of our retrospective descriptive study.
