Abstract
Objectives To compare the efficacy and safety of disposable circumcision suture device (DCSD) and ShangRing circumcision in the tratment of patients with redundant prepuce or phimosis. Methods 180 patients with redundant prepuce or phimosis were randomly divided into two groups: the DCSD group (n=93) and the ShangRing group (n=87). Factors concerning efficacy and safety were compared. Results DCSD showed obvious advantages over the ShangRing in operating time [(6.36±1.09)min vs. (7.23±1.10) min], postoperative 24h pain score (1.94±1.08) vs.(2.89±0.98), postoperative 7d pain score (2.08±0.89) vs. (3.74±1.01), wound healing time [(18.44±3.58)d vs. (21.66±3.65)d], the incidence of wound dehiscence (2.2% vs. 11.5%), and overall satisfactory rate (86.0% vs. 73.6%). There was significant difference in above results (P 0.05). Conclusions DCSD has advantages of shorter operation and incision healing time, reduced postoperative pain score, and high appearance satisfaction. It should be widely used in clinical practice.
