Obstetrics

5m 0s
Males are born with a hood of skin covering the glans of the penis. This hood is called the foreskin. Circumcision is the surgical removal of the hood.
Some couples request circumcision for religious reasons, others for health or cleanliness reasons. Circumcision is probably effective at reducing the later risk of:
- Infections occurring beneath the foreskin
- Penile cancer
- Cervical cancer among their female partners
This 5 minute video shows a newborn circumcision, utilizing a ring block anesthetic and a Gomko clamp.
