Single-operator circumcision using a penile circumcision and suturing device: a pilot comparative feasibility study

1

The study evaluated a single-operator circumcision technique using a penile circumcision and suturing device compared to a dual-operator method.
2

A total of 195 patients were enrolled, with 82 in the dual-operator group and 113 in the single-operator group.
3

Mean operative times were similar between the single-operator (6.18 min) and dual-operator (6.14 min) groups, with no significant difference.
4

Intraoperative blood loss was comparable between both groups, with 4.95 cm² in the single-operator group and 5.01 cm² in the dual-operator group.
5

No adverse surgical events occurred in either group, indicating safety in both circumcision techniques.
