“

Article Excerpt: Cornell has developed a specialty in this area — adult circumcisions constitute about 20% of his practice — and he says he's had no complications in the 2,000 adult circumcisions he's performed in the past seven years. However, he says he thinks that's likely not the case with doctors who perform them infrequently. "About a quarter of my cases are redos of men who were circumcised as adults, and they're pretty much Frankenstein-looking," he says. "I've seen cases where they've used 40 to 50 stitches, and the scarring is pretty bad." – Elizabeth Cohen, CNN (CNN)

It is not known how many of his patients are regret men.
