A Comparative Study on the Efficacy of Four Types of Circumcision for Elderly Males with Redundant Prepuce.

CONCLUSION: Taken together, all four types of male circumcision present with advantages and drawbacks. The traditional male circumcision and sleeve circumcision led to longer operation time and more bleeding, but no additional medical equipment was needed. Meanwhile, the Shang Ring circumcision caused the shortest operation time and the least bleeding, accompanied by the longest pain duration and recovery time. Therefore, the application of sleeve circumcision or a suturing device was recommended for elderly males suffering from redundant prepuce. PMID: 31364098 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
