Adult male circumcision (AMC) reduces HIV transmission, but uptake is limited in part by current surgical methods. We randomized HIV-uninfected men (n = 138) to receive Shang Ring (SR)- or forceps-guided AMC from a locally trained surgeon. In as-treated analyses, more SR procedures were completed within 10 minutes (79% versus 0%, P < 0.01) and more subjects reported high satisfaction (77% versus 58%, P = 0.03). Healing time and pain scores were similar, though minor complication rates were higher in SR subjects (56% versus 24%, P < 0.01). SR circumcision is a rapid and acceptable method of AMC and should be further evaluated to increase uptake of AMC.
成人男性环切术(AMC)可降低 HIV 传播风险,但由于目前的手术方法,其接受程度有限。我们将未感染 HIV 的男性(n=138)随机分配接受 Shang Ring(SR)或钳子引导的 AMC,由当地培训的外科医生进行操作。在实际治疗分析中,更多的 SR 手术在 10 分钟内完成(79%比 0%,P<0.01),更多的受试者报告高度满意(77%比 58%,P=0.03)。愈合时间和疼痛评分相似,但 SR 组的轻微并发症发生率较高(56%比 24%,P<0.01)。SR 环切术是一种快速且可接受的 AMC 方法,应该进一步评估以增加 AMC 的接受程度。
