Jungenbeschneidung in Deutschland - eine Bestandsaufnahme translates into English as Circumcision of boys in Germany - an inventory.

Circumcision of boys in Germany - an inventory was the title of a symposium on 8 May 2017 at Heinrich Heine University.

The event was organized on the occasion of the fifth WWDOGA by the Clinical Institute for Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy at the University Hospital Düsseldorf, the association MOGiS e.V. and the section Child and Adolescent Psychosomatics in the German Society for Psychosomatic Medicine and Medical Psychotherapy (DGPM).

“

The foreskin is the most sexually sensitive part of the penis. The removal, especially in infancy and childhood, always represents a serious violation of genital integrity, which can lead to persistent physical, sexual or psychological complications and states of suffering. In Germany alone, about 400 young boys are admitted to hospitals every year, even after circumcisions that have not been carried out for medical reasons, with sometimes severe complications. With our conference, we would like to provide information on this and open up a platform for a factually sound and respectful dialogue with all interested parties on this controversial topic. – Prof. Dr. Matthias Franz, Co-initiator of the conference (University of Düsseldorf)
