“…While its etiology is uncertain, the most popular theory is that the meatal mucosa undergoes chronic irritation in the absence of a prepuce which results in meatus losing its elliptical shape to a rounded one [22]. Another theory states that ischemia after damage to the frenular artery during circumcision, results in poor blood supply to the meatus and subsequent fusion of the ventral sides of the orifice [2]. Shenoy et al mentioned that MS is not seen after circumcision if the frenular artery is protected [23].…”

“…Symptoms are usually masked in infants and young kids in diapers, thus the diagnosis is often delayed until the toilet training stage. Deflection of the urinary stream, dysuria, hematuria, urinary frequency, and incontinence are the most common reported symptoms [2,3]. Diagnosis of MS is still controversial.…”

“…Meatal stenoz frenular arter bağlanması nedeniyle olabileceği gibi tanısı konulmamış meatal darlığın sünnet sonrası görünür hale gelmesi ile yanlış bir komplikasyon olarak da değerlendirilebilir (12) . Başka bir teori ise açığa çıkan meatusun bebek bezi ve amonyaklı idrar teması nedeniyle kronik irritasyona maruz kaldığı, bunun sonucunda skarlaşmaya bağlı meatal stenoz gelişmiş olabileceğidir (21,22) . Bu teoriyi destekleyen yakın dönemde yapılmış iki çalışmada, meatal stenozun yenidoğan sünneti sonrası ilk birkaç haftada geliştiğini bildirmiştir (23,24) .…”

Objective: The aim is to evaluate the complications in patients who are circumcised before school age and investigate the effect of diaper use on complications of circumcision. Method: 1,669 cases between 20 days and 7 years of age who were circumcised under local anaesthesia were investigated retrospectively. The patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 consisted of those who used diapers, and group 2 consisted of those who did not use diapers. Those who were operated due to urogenital pathologies and simultaneously circumcised were not included in the groups. The children who normally used diapers continued to be diapered following circumcision. Results: The most common complication following circumcision was bleeding (2.9%). Other complications included infection (2.2%), ecchymosis (2.3%), skin adhesion (1.3%), urinary retention (0.1%), redundant foreskin/circumcision revision (0.1%), and meatal stenosis (0.1%). Bleeding, infection, ecchymosis, skin adhesion, urinary retention, redundant foreskin-circumcision revision and meatal stenosis rates did not vary significantly (p>0.05) between group 1 and group 2. Conclusion: Diaper use was not found to have any effect on complications of circumcision.

“…Following this, some surgeons will evert the urethral mucosa using interrupted tacking sutures and others will not [5–7]. Regardless of approach, the procedure is typically short and is associated with low rates of restenosis (approximately 0–1.8%) [4–7]. Although urethral meatotomy is a “minor” procedure, its high frequency in pediatric urology practice makes it a potentially impactful topic for outcome assessment.…”
