AB The  preferred  3  techniques  for  pediatric  circumcision  are  the  clamp,  the  dorsal  slit,  and  the  sleeve  resection.Clamp  techniques  are  most  applicable  to  the  neonatal  procedure  while  dorsal  slit  and  sleeve  resections  are  optimally  applied  to  the  older  child  or  young  adult.Postoperative  bleeding  is  the  most  common  morbidity  of  circumcision  and  is  best  prevented  by  meticulous  attention  to  hemostasis.Careful  identification  of  the  glans  penis  and  urethral  meatus  throughout  the  procedure  is  the  most  effective  way  to  avoid  inadvertent  injury  to  these  structures.
