'''Redundant foreskin''' (aka '''Insufficient foreskin removal/redundant foreskin''' ) is classed technically as a [[complication]]. The major issue is cosmetic because the expected [[circumcised ]] appearance has not been achieved. There are no additional health issues from insufficient [[foreskin ]] removal. A [[Adolescent and adult circumcision| circumcision ]] revision is usually carried out to achieve the desired appearance.<ref>{{REFjournal

There is no accepted definition of redundant [[foreskin]].
==Acroposthion==
