'''Meatal stenosis''' is a narrowing of the ''meatus'' (the opening of the [[urethra]]). Meatal stenosis is extremely rare in [[intact]] boys with a protective [[foreskin]]. About twenty percent of [[circumcised ]] boys develop meatal stenosis. Meatal stenosis may be prevented by avoiding child [[circumcision]], which is a medically-unnecessary, non-therapeutic surgical [[amputation]] procedure.
