Abstract
Circumcision is one of the most common operations performed world-wide and is usually done for religious and social reasons. Although it is a simple procedure, serious complications may result. These complicati ons may range from hemorrhage to total amputation. Reconstruction of a partial amputation of phallus due to circumcision by full-thickness s kin grafting is presented in this paper.
