Neonatal circumcision is a quick and generally safe procedure when performed by an experienced physician. Complications are few and usually minor. It has many potential benefits. It is also more economical and avoids the risk of general anesthesia to perform the procedure early in life, rather than later. The American Academy of Family Physicians recommends that an objective discussion, answering the questions of the parents, should precede any truly informed consent. The physician should document the discussion and resultant decision in the medical record.
由经验丰富的医生进行新生儿包皮环切术是一个快速且通常安全的手术。并发症很少，而且通常不严重。它有许多潜在益处。该手术也更经济，并且避免了在生命早期而非晚期进行手术时全身麻醉的风险。美国家庭医师学会建议，在获得真正知情同意之前，应进行客观的讨论，回答父母的问题。医生应在病历中记录讨论情况及最终决定。
