Objectives:
To evaluate the effectiveness of the
anti-hemorrhagic drug therapy protocol we implemented, as well as the surgical
techniques adopted, in hemophilic patients undergoing circumcision.
Patients
and Methods: This was a prospective study conducted over
four months, from July 2025 to October 2025, in the Pediatric Surgery
Department of the Albert Royer National Children’s Hospital and the National
Blood Transfusion Center (CNTS), in which 20 files were collected. The
therapeutic protocol consisted of injectable Kovaltry and Exacyl combined with
hygiene and dietary measures. The surgical techniques were the guillotine
technique with a loose transient tourniquet and the two-stage mucocutaneous
section technique under guide clamp.
Results:
Mean age was 8.7 years (range: 10 months to 16
years). Patients were classified by type of hemophilia and the severe type was
the most frequent (9 of 20 patients). All patients received the pre-established
anti-hemorrhagic protocol. The guillotine technique with a loose transient
tourniquet was performed in 10 patients, and the two-stage mucocutaneous
section technique under guide clamp in the other 10. Mean length of hospital
stay was 4 days. Complications were dominated by postoperative hemorrhage,
followed by infections.
