ABSTRACT
Objective@#To compare the clinical effect of a novel disposable circumcision device Ring with that of conventional circumcision in the treatment of redundant prepuce and phimosis.@*METHODS@#Totally, 750 patients with redundant prepuce or phimosis underwent Ring circumcision (group A, n = 450) or conventional circumcision (group B, n = 300). We recorded the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) intraoperative pain scores, postoperative complications, wound healing time, and patients' satisfaction with postoperative penile appearance, followed by comparison of the collected data between the two groups of patients.@*RESULTS@#All the operations were successfully completed. Group A, as compared with B, showed significantly shorter operation time ([3.78 ± 0.42] vs [26.24 ± 3.99] min, P 0.05) or the postoperative incidence rate of edema (0.89% [4/450] vs 2.33% [7/300], P >0.05). There were no significant postoperative infections or delayed incision healing except for 1 case of wound dehiscence in each group.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Ring circumcision, with its advantages of shorter operation time, less blood loss and pain, higher safety, and better postoperative penile appearance, is easily accepted by the patients and deserves wide clinical application.
