Abstract
Many urethroplasty procedures result in circumcision. Where circumcision is not desired, alternative techniques should be entertained as described herein. In addition to those directly interested in this topic, this chapter also serves as a good reference for the primary care provider who is often tasked with setting patient (and parental) expectations and with the tending of wound healing.
