Please also acquaint yourself with the American Urological Association policy statement relating to Penile Augmentation.
"The American Urological Association, Inc.® (AUA) considers injection of fat cells for increasing penile girth (width) to be a procedure which has not been shown to be safe or effective.
The AUA also considers the cutting of the suspensory ligament of the penis for increasing penile length in adults to be a procedure that has not been shown to be safe or effective."
Glossary of Terms
Penis: The male organ used for urination and sex
Suspensory ligament: Band of tissue that holds the penis up against the pubic bone. |

Circumcision - The
Procedure
Consent
|
|
Informed
Consent
It is important
to provide the patient with adequate
information about the procedure
ahead of time. Specifically, the
patient should be told about the
risks of bleeding, hematoma formation,
infection, inadvertent damage
to the glans, removal of too much
or too little skin, aesthetically
unpleasing results and a change
of sensation during intercourse.
The patient should also be informed
that, during the postoperative
period, erections can cause pain
and disruption of the suture line
that may require replacement of
the sutures. Full recovery following
circumcision generally requires
four to six weeks of abstinence
from all genital stimulation and
sexual activity.
The patient should
also be reminded about the benefits
of circumcision. If he has the
procedure, hygiene will be simpler
and may result in fewer local
infections, resolution of phimosis
and paraphimosis, and less risk
of frenular tears and bleeding
during intercourse.
Alternatively,
if the patient elects not to have
the procedure, he should be treated
with conservative measures for
these conditions (e.g., either
oral or topical antibiotics, training
in meticulous hygiene for patients
with balanitis). Patients having
a circumcision for recurrent balanitis
should be free from infection
before the procedure.
Preparation of
the surgical site includes a thorough
surgical scrub of the genital
area with a povidone-iodine preparation.
Shaving and clipping of the pubic
hair should be avoided to minimize
the possibility of infection.
Sterile draping of the area should
be used to identify the surgical
field. An electrocautery unit
should be available to provide
hemostasis.
