This study was performed between October 2009 and June 2012 among
children aged seven years and older who were admitted for circumcision.
The children were asked to choose one from among pictures on the informed
consent form of a non-circumcised, circumcised and partially circumcised penis.
Eighty-seven children preferred the non-circumcised penis, 15 preferred the
circumcised, and only 5 indicated the partially circumcised penis. According
to this study, children are satisfied with their own non-circumcised penis
and do not have any other cosmetic expectation.
