Open circumcision, also known as the dorsal slit technique, involves making a longitudinal incision along the upper length of the foreskin to expose and remove it. This method provides direct visualization, allowing for precise removal and minimizing complications. It is particularly beneficial for patients with tight foreskin or scarring.
Open circumcision is recommended for:
Phimosis: Inability to retract the foreskin due to tightness.
Paraphimosis: Trapped retracted foreskin leading to swelling and pain.
Balanitis: Recurrent inflammation or infection of the glans.
Balanoposthitis: Inflammation of both the glans and foreskin.
Personal or cultural reasons: Including religious practices or personal hygiene preferences.
Improved Hygiene: Easier cleaning reduces the risk of infections.
Reduced Infection Risk: Lower chances of urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted infections.
Prevention of Penile Conditions: Decreased risk of penile cancer and other foreskin-related issues.
Enhanced Sexual Health: Potential improvement in sexual function and comfort.
Permanent Solution: Addresses recurring foreskin problems effectively.
While open circumcision is generally safe, potential risks include:
Bleeding: Minor bleeding is common; excessive bleeding is rare.
Infection: Proper wound care minimizes this risk.
Pain or Discomfort: Manageable with prescribed medications.
Scarring: Minimal and typically fades over time.
Meatal Stenosis: Narrowing of the urethral opening, uncommon but treatable.
Preparation: The surgical area is cleaned and sterilized.
Anesthesia: Local or general anesthesia is administered based on patient age and preference.
Incision: A dorsal slit is made along the upper foreskin.
Foreskin Removal: Excess foreskin is excised.
Hemostasis: Bleeding is controlled using cauterization or sutures.
Closure: The incision is closed with dissolvable stitches.
Dressing: A sterile dressing is applied to protect the wound.
The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, and patients can usually return home the same day.
Initial Days: Rest and limited physical activity are advised.
Wound Care: Keep the area clean and dry; follow dressing change instructions.
Pain Management: Use prescribed pain relievers as directed.
