It is one of the commonest operations performed worldwide. Meatal stenosis is an uncommon long-term complication of circumcision that can lead to problems voiding. Aim: To identify the clinical presentations and management of meatal stenosis in Port Harcourt. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients who presented with features of meatal stenosis between January 2012 and December 2021. The patients’ history, physical examination findings, investigations and treatment received were analysed. Results: A total of 52 patients with features of meatal stenosis were recruited for the study. The number of patients less than a year old, between a year and 5 years, between 6 and 10 years and greater than 11 years were 8, 12, 28 and 4 respectively. Only 8 patients presented within 6 months of onset of symptoms. The most common symptom was poor urine stream, followed by straining. Meatotomy was the most commonly performed procedure for meatal stenosis 24 (46.15%). The patients were followed up for at least 6 months. Six patients had recurrence after treatment of meatal stenosis. Three patients each had a recurrence following dilatation and meatotomy. No patient had recurrence after meatoplasty. Conclusion: Meatal stenosis is an uncommon complication post circumcision. Patients usually present late to the hospital in our study. Meatoplasty had the best outcome. After treatment of meatal stenosis patients should be followed up for 6 months.展开更多

Beyond the psychological trauma parents go through, they have to deal with the lower urinary tract symptoms including acute urine retention their baby boys suffer due to meatal stenosis from the scaring process that ensues. We report on the cosmetic and functional outcomes in two patients ten years after neo-glans reconstruction following total glans amputation as a complication of circumcision and discuss the lessons learned over the period.展开更多
