What is Stapler Circumcision?

Stapler circumcision, also known as "circumcision with a disposable stapler," is a surgical technique used for male circumcision. Circumcision is the removal of the foreskin, which is the fold of skin that covers the head of the penis. Circumcisions are one of the oldest forms of operations being performed on humans. This procedure is considered potent as it prevents STDs and improves penile topical hygiene and reduces incidences of belts and penile cancer. In Stapler Circumcision, a specialized medical stapler is utilized to remove the foreskin instead of the traditional surgical techniques like using a scalpel or scissors. Stapler circumcision is considered to be a relatively safe and efficient technique for male circumcision, offering potential benefits such as reduced bleeding, shorter operating times, and quicker recovery.

Initial Examination

• The surgeon will discuss the complaints and do a local examination of the penis to assess the size and condition of the foreskin, as well as to check for any signs of infection or abnormalities. Dr. Raju R will explain the stapler circumcision procedure to you, including its risks, benefits, and what to expect during and after the surgery. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions or voice any concerns you may have.

Day of the Procedure

• You don’t need to be fasting on the day of surgery as it is done under local anaesthesia.

Steps of Procedure

• You'll receive anaesthesia to numb the area and ensure you don't feel any pain during the procedure.
• The doctor will use a special pen to mark the part of the foreskin that will be removed.
• Instead of using a scalpel or scissors, the doctor will use a medical stapler. The stapler is placed around the marked area, and with a gentle squeeze, it removes the excess foreskin.
• The stapler not only cuts but also seals the tiny blood vessels as it works. This helps to minimize bleeding. Once the excess foreskin is removed, the doctor will clean the area to remove any blood or debris.

Will I be Awake During the Procedure?

• With local anaesthesia, you will be awake during the procedure, but you should not feel any pain. You may feel some pressure or pulling sensations, but they should not be uncomfortable.

After the Procedure

• After the procedure, you'll be given some time to rest. You might feel a bit sore or uncomfortable for a short while, but it shouldn't last long. Dr. Raju R will give you instructions on how to take care of yourself at home and what to expect during the healing process.

Is Stapler Circumcision Safe?

Yes, stapler circumcision is generally considered safe due to its lesser invasive nature and lower infection rate, faster recovery, and precise technique.

When Circumcision is Needed?

• Patients who are unable to retract the foreskin of the glans penis
• Those who have painful intercourse due to foreskin tightness
• Phimosis Patients (when the penis has a tight foreskin)
• Balanitis patients (infection and redness on the tip of penis area)
• Paraphimosis patients (In this condition, the foreskin remains in the retracted position and can’t be covered again.) This needs immediate treatment as the blood supply of the penis can get hampered as well.
• Frenulum Tear patients who require frenuloplasty (the frenulum is tight in this condition and the foreskin is unable to retract due to that.) In frenuloplasty circumcision laser surgery, the foreskin is preserved, however, circumcision can also treat the condition completely.
• People following religious beliefs about circumcision
• Cosmetic and hygiene

What Would Disqualify Me from Circumcision Surgery?

• Medical Conditions: Certain medical conditions may increase the risks associated with surgery like uncontrolled diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and compromised immune function.
• Psychological or Emotional Factors: Psychological or emotional factors, such as severe anxiety, fear of surgery, or unrealistic expectations.
• Infections or Inflammation: Active infections or inflammation of the genital area, such as balanitis or sexually transmitted infections.
• Anatomical Considerations: Anatomical variations or abnormalities of the penis may make circumcision surgery more challenging.
