Abstract

Objective: Circumcision is one of the most widely used surgical procedures worldwide. It has been suggested that circumcision reduces the frequency of urinary tract infection (UTI) 10-20 times. However no studies exist investigating the effect of circumcision on UTI frequency and growth in infants with antenatal hydronephrosis (AH). In this study therefore, we aimed to exa- mine the effect of circumcision on postnatal UTI frequency and growth in infants without urolo- gical abnormality despite the diagnosis of antenatal hydronephrosis. Material and Methods: Data were evaluated retrospectively between 1998-2010. Infants with a fetal pelvis diameter of &#8805;5 mm identified with antenatal ultrasound (US) were followed-up. All patients were evaluated in terms of UTI frequency and body weights, and heights of the infants were collected. The chi-square and Student&#8217;s t tests were used for statistical analysis. P value <0.05 was considered significant. Results: In circumcised normal male infants pre-circumcision mean UTI frequency (2.27±1.75 per year) was found to be higher than the post-circumcision mean UTI frequency (0.12±0.22 per year) (p<0.05). Post-circumcision heights (mean height SDS=0.19±1.2) were significantly greater than pre-circumcision heights (mean height SDS=-0.03±0.55) in circumcised males (p=0.02). Pre- (0.23±1.2) and post-circumcision (0.43±0.85) mean (± SDS) body weight measurements were not statistically different (p>0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, in male infants without detected urological abnormalities antenatally diagnosed as AH, early circumcision decreases the frequency of UTI and provides a positive contribution to the growth.

Özet

Amaç: Dünyada en çok uygulanan cerrahi işlemlerden biri olan sünnetin idrar yolu infeksiyonu (İYE) sıklığını 10-20 kat azalttığı bildirilmektedir. Ancak, antenatal hidronefroz (AH) tanılı olgularda sünnetin İYE sıklığına ve büyüme üzerine etkisi ile ilgili çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Bu çalışmada, AH tanısı alıp postnatal izleminde her hangi bir ürolojik anomali belirlenmeyen olgularda sünnetin İYE sıklığına ve büyüme üzerine etkisinin incelemesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Veriler 1998-2010 yılları arasında geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Antenatal ultrasonografide böbrek pelvis çapı ≥5 mm olan olgular izleme alındı. Olgular İYE sıklığı açısından değerlendirilip, boy ve kilo verileri toplandı. İstatistiksel analizlerde ki-kare ve Student t testi kullanıldı. P değeri 0,05). Sonuç: Sonuç olarak, doğumdan sonra herhangi bir ürolojik anomali saptanamayan AH tanılı erkek çocukların erken sünnet edilmesi İYE sıklığını azaltmakta ve büyüme üzerine olumlu katkı sağlamaktadır.
