→AUA position statement: Revise text.
}}</ref>
* This statement completely excludes any mention of the important protective, immunological, sexual, and sensory functions of the [[foreskin]] which might dissuade a patient or his surrogate from granting [[Informed consent| consent]] for a foreskin [[amputation]].
* This statement is completely silent on [[human rights]] and medical ethics issues concerning the non-therapeutic excision of functional body parts from a minor who is too young to grant consent.
When drafting this statement, it is evident that the AUA placed the income of its members above the legal rights, health, and well-being of American boys.
