Circumcision is a common procedure performed since ancient times with an excellent safety profile and potential health benefits. In the United States, it is commonly performed in the neonatal period using devices such as the Gomco, Mogen, or Plastibell device. In the rare circumstance of a complication, it is often related to bleeding and usually managed conservatively. However, complications requiring surgical intervention can occur and remind practitioners of the importance of proper equipment and technique. Herein, we report a case in which extensive injuries to the penile skin after neonatal circumcision using a Gomco clamp required emergent intervention.
包皮环切术是一项自古以来就普遍施行的手术，具有良好的安全性和潜在的健康益处。在美国，通常在新生儿期使用如Gomco、Mogen或Plastibell器械进行该手术。在罕见的并发症情况下，通常与出血有关，且一般采用保守治疗。然而，需要手术干预的并发症可能会发生，这提醒从业者注意合适的设备和技术的重要性。在此，我们报告一例使用Gomco夹进行新生儿包皮环切术后阴茎皮肤广泛损伤需要紧急干预的病例。
