Abstract
Our results of dorsal slit method in children applied with circumcision OBJECTIVE: Circumcision, one of the oldest known surgical procedures in the history of humanity, is still being applied in many different techniques over the centuries in connection with its increased knowledge. In this retrospective study, we aimed to discuss the results of the Dorsal Slit method. MATERIAL and METHODS: Between June 2011 and July 2022, 5122 cases who were circumcised using the dorsal slit technique were reviewed retrospectively. Of the cases the mean age, duration of surgery and surgical intervention results were evaluated. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients included in the study was 4.82±3.18 years. The mean procedure time was calculated as 11.74±2.04 minutes. Complications were observed in 20 (0.39%) patients due to anesthesia and 39 (0.78%) patients due to surgical intervention. No complications that could cause mortality or morbidity were encountered. No patient underwent a second surgical intervention due to complications. CONCLUSION: In children who underwent circumcision, the Dorsal slit method is a successful surgical procedure with low complication rates. Keywords: dorsal slit method, circumcision, child
