What Happens During Stapler Circumcision Surgery?

Diagnosis

Depending on whether or not a stapler circumcision is medically essential, different diagnostic tests are needed. Most individuals who undergo circumcision do it for religious or cosmetic reasons, and in most cases, only a basic health examination is required before to the procedure.

Procedure

In comparison to open circumcision, the modern circumcision technique known as stapler circumcision provides for a quicker recovery and better outcomes. Both general and local anaesthesia are acceptable for the procedure, albeit local anaesthesia is recommended.

How to Prepare for Stapler Circumcision Surgery?

  • Let your doctor know in advance if you’re allergic to any medications.
  • Avoid heavy meals the night before the surgery.
  • Avoid drinking and smoking a week before the surgery.
  • Eat a light meal on the day of the surgery. Avoid heavy foods that are high in fats and carbs.
  • Ensure you have someone to accompany you back home after your surgery since you may still have some after-effects of anesthesia.

Benefits of Stapler Circumcision

  • Generally, there are two most common types of patients for circumcision surgery: Adults with penile problems and newborns getting circumcision due to religious reasons. Currently, according to most research studies, the benefits of stapler circumcision outweigh the risks. Circumcision reduces the risk of contracting UTIs, STIs, HIV, etc. It can even lead to lower risk of developing penile cancer in men and cervical cancer in their sexual partners.
  • Both of these patient types typically underwent open circumcision in the past, but nowadays, stapler and laser circumcision are preferred. Of these two techniques, stapler circumcision surgery is often preferred as it provides better results with minimal complications.
  • Stapler circumcision preserves the tissue surrounding the surgical site and removes the foreskin with minimal blood loss. It has a quick recovery time, and the patient is fully recovered in a few weeks. The silicone ring left on the penis prevents postsurgical infections and aids the recovery of the patient.

Can newborns be circumcised through a stapler circumcision procedure?

Yes, stapler circumcision is perfectly safe for patients of all ages, even babies. In fussy babies, it may be preferred since the foreskin is removed in one quick motion through a pre-attached stapler.

Can I get stapler circumcision surgery even if I have an infected foreskin?

Yes, stapler circumcision is very safe, even for patients with bleeding and discharge in their foreskin due to penile problems such as phimosis, paraphimosis, balanitis, balanoposthitis, etc.

Do I need to visit a doctor to get the silicone ring removed?

No, normally, the silicone ring, along with the staples attached to it, will fall off on its own within 10-14 days once the incision has healed. However, if you notice any pain associated with the ring, you can visit your urologist for wound examination.

Will stapler circumcision affect my sexual drive or performance?

No, stapler circumcision only removes the foreskin which does not affect a person’s sexual drive or performance at all. In fact, in some cases it can even enhance the person’s penile sensitivity increasing their sexual pleasure.

Treatments for Varicose Veins

Endovenous laser therapy ablation

Also known as endovenous laser treatment or EVLA, this is a minimally invasive ultrasound-guided procedure that involves the use of ultrasound images and laser fiber in order to kill the delicate lining of the veins. After a few days following the procedure, the body absorbs the dead tissues, closing off the abnormal veins with minimal or no discomfort. This is one of the most commonly preferred methods as it involves far fewer complications, and the recovery time, as well as the success rate of this method, is much faster and higher than that of any surgical process.
