Dorsal penile nerve block (DPNB)[1] is a local anesthetic procedure sometimes used in hope of reducing pain in circumcision of the newborn. In this procedure two injections of local anesthetic are made near the base of the penis at the ten o'clock and two o'clock positions to block the dorsal nerves.
DPNB was proposed by Kirya & Werthman in 1978.[2]
