A Modified Pressure Dressing to Avoid Severe Bleeding After Circumcision With a Disposable Circumcision Suture Device and a Discussion on the Mechanism of Bleeding With the Disposable Circumcision Suture Device

Abstract

Introduction A novel type of a disposable circumcision suture device (DCSD) has been proved to be effective and safe; however, a few cases of severe bleeding took place after circumcisions. Aim To evaluate the effectiveness of a modified double-layer pressure dressing to avoid severe bleeding after circumcision with the DCSD, in our department in a prospective randomized controlled study, and discuss the mechanism of bleeding with DCSD. Methods Patients with redundant foreskin or phimosis were included between September 2018 and November 2019 and divided into 2 groups: In group A, the conventional pressure dressing was performed; in group B, an modified double-layer pressure dressing was performed. Main Outcome Measure The main outcomes and complications (surgical time, incidence of glans ischemia, severe bleeding rate, infection rate, pain level, total cost, and overall satisfaction) were collected and analyzed. Results A total of 624 patients were recruited for this study. There was no difference in the average age and body mass index between 2 groups. No patient suffered obvious glans ischemia. In group B, lower pain level, lower incidences of severe bleeding, and better satisfaction were recorded. Conclusion The mechanism of bleeding with the DCSD was discussed in this study, and the modified pressure dressing was proved effective, safe, and easy to perform. W Jiang, J-li Fu, W-l Guo, et al.

A Retrospective Taiwanese-Population-Based Clinical Study on Determining the Efficacy and Safety of Disposable Circumcision Anastomat

“…The median operation time of 31 min in our study was longer than the average of other studies between 6.8–10.2 min [ 15 , 27 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ]. The longer median operation time in our research may be attributed to our assigned operation time record which included time after the patient entry into the operation room and their leaving, and also the post-operative education time.…”

“…MC in adults is mainly performed through sleeve resection, forceps-guided, and dorsal slit methods [ 12 ]. However, these traditional approaches are tedious and could lead to complications such as peri-/postoperative pain, bleeding, and infection [ 13 , 14 , 15 ]. Thus, novel methods and devices have been developed to overcome these adverse events to improve circumcision effectiveness with enhanced safety.…”

The Morphological Classification of the Penile Frenulum in Chinese's People and its Clinical Application Value in the Frenulum Malposition of Circumcision with the Disposable Circumcision Suture Device (DCSD)

“…Being commercially attainable in 2012, as a novel surgery type, DCSD had just been undertaken in large clinical trials in recent three years in China and other countries [7]; no mentor was available from the beginning of DCSD clinic application in our hospital in 2013. Its poptimizeage and complication control world guarantee the success of the device application, also it be the key point if a new [13]device is accepted by the urology surgeon, practitioners, patients and their partners.…”
