Child circumcision increases deaths! On June 5438+08, a 5-year-old boy surnamed Lu was circumcised in a surgical hospital in Taichung. I didn't wake up after general anesthesia, and I was declared dead after first aid. At present, this medical dispute is under investigation by the police. The doctor reminded that it is not necessary for young children to be circumcised. Unless the boy's foreskin is too long, causing repeated inflammation of the urinary tract, urine can not come out. Otherwise, it is best to wait until after puberty to avoid increasing the risk of surgical anesthesia and inflammation.

Circumcision is a selective operation, especially for young children, which requires general anesthesia. In particular, children with congenital diseases such as heart disease, allergic constitution or lack of coagulation function are not suitable for operation under anesthesia. Chen Jinming, a plastic surgeon, pointed out that although the circumcision operation is not difficult and the operation time does not exceed 1 hour, there are still risks such as surgical anesthesia, recurrent bleeding, inflammation, etc., especially for children who need general anesthesia, especially those with congenital diseases such as heart disease, allergic constitution, or lack of coagulation function, it is not appropriate to operate under anesthesia.

Generally speaking, the length of a man is mainly influenced by congenital factors. Among the religious beliefs of Jews, there is the so-called circumcision, that is, circumcision of babies, which has affected. Many men in Europe and America also have the habit of circumcision. But he stressed that circumcision is also controversial in medicine and is not "necessary".

Dr. Chen Jinming emphasized that circumcision is a selective operation. The boy who needs circumcision is mainly phimosis, which makes the front edge of the foreskin unable to retreat behind the coronary sulcus, so that it cannot be cleaned for a long time, leading to repeated inflammation; Or adult men still have phimosis, which affects their sexual life, or because the foreskin is too long, the skin is damaged and inflamed in the process of * * *, and circumcision is needed.

Although epidemiological investigation found that circumcision can reduce the chances of cancer and urinary tract infection; However, in Taiwan Province Province, the incidence of * * * cancer is not high, and circumcision requires general anesthesia in childhood, which is an extra layer of risk. If circumcision is excessive, there will be painful sequelae.

In the outpatient department, 80% of the children's foreskin is too long. Because the genitals are in a warm environment for a long time, if you don't pay attention to personal hygiene, bacteria can easily breed in the foreskin, leading to * * *, urethra and prostatitis. The best prevention method is to maintain personal hygiene. But don't forcibly open the foreskin of children for cleaning. Due to the accumulation of cheese-like foreskin on the head and neck, it is a secretion of normal size and will disappear when it grows up.
