Complete penile amputation is perhaps the most tragic of all of the many complications of non-therapeutic infant circumcision. It refers to the total, complete ablation[1] or destruction of the penis by a surgical mishap. Penile ablation is said to be an extremely rare condition in advanced nations where circumcision is performed by trained medical doctors, but it is more common in developing nations where traditional circumcision is the usual practice.[2]
