Stapler Circumcision
Phimosis
( Disease Definition, Causes and Symptoms )
Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin is tight and difficult to retract, which is normal in infants but can become problematic later in life, potentially causing pain, difficulty urinating, or infection.. Phimosis is not usually an emergency, but it can cause
problems with hygiene, urination, and sexual activity. A doctor can diagnose phimosis during a physical examination.
In order to remove the foreskin, a stapler instrument is used in this sophisticated
medical technique. ZSR Stapler Circumcision
● Reduced damage to the tissue
● Reduced loss of blood
● Better personal cleanliness
● Reduced complications
● Fast recovery
Incontinence
Process.
● After cutting the foreskin, the stapler machine puts two rows of staples, which
come loose after two to three weeks.
● Under local anesthesia, the process takes less than five minutes to complete.
● In most centers, the patient can resume work in six hours.

If the foreskin remains tight and cannot be retracted, even with gentle stretching, it may indicate phimosis.
Causes
- Poor hygiene
- Skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and lichen planus
- Inflammation or infection of the foreskin
- Scars from a previous injury or infection
- Balanitis xerotica obliterans (BXO)
- Diabetes mellitus
Symptoms
- Painful urination
- Weak urine flow
- Blood in urine
- Frequent urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- Bleeding or discharge from under the foreskin
- Painful erections
- Bulging of the foreskin during urination
Treatment Options :
Non-Surgical Treatments:
- Topical Steroid Creams: Prescribed steroid creams (like betamethasone) can help reduce inflammation and facilitate stretching.
- Manual Stretching: Gentle, regular stretching exercises, often combined with steroid creams, can help improve foreskin mobility.
Surgical Treatments:
- Circumcision: The foreskin is removed, exposing the glans (the tip of the
penis). Different methods are used, including devices3. - ZSR Stapler Circumcision: The "original ZSR circumcision" refers to a circumcision procedure using a specialized surgical stapler developed by ZSR Biomedical. This technique involves using a device to simultaneously cut and stitch the foreskin, offering a potentially quicker and less painful procedure compared to traditional methods. The ZSR device utilizes a circular stapler with a silicone ring, which helps to create a clean and precise incision.
3.Important Considerations:
- Hygiene: Maintaining good hygiene by cleaning the penis regularly is crucial, especially in cases
of phimosis. - Seek Professional Advice: If you or your child are experiencing symptoms of phimosis, it's essential to consult a doctor or urologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.
- Complications: If the foreskin is forcibly retracted, it can lead to paraphimosis, a condition where the foreskin becomes trapped behind the glans, potentially cutting off blood supply.
