ABSTRACT
Neonatal circumcision is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures in the world. As with all surgeries, it carries risks, including rare, but devastating complications, such as glans, and/or penile shaft amputation. Complete glans amputation with successful replantation has been previously reported. Herein we report a case of complete amputation at the penile midshaft in a 28-day-old neonate with a unique approach to postoperative care including the use of leech therapy, topical heparin, and caudal analgesia following successful microvascular replantation.
