Infant [[circumcision]] requires that the [[foreskin]] first be torn from the [[glans penis]] by passing a blunt probe under the [[foreskin]] to rip the [[synechia]] that binds the infant foreskin to the glans penis and separate the foreskin so that it may be amputated. This leaves the surface of the glans penis in a raw condition.
The wound of an infant circumcision is not sutured so the remnant of the foreskin is free to fall where it may. In some cases it falls into contact with the raw [[glans penis]] , adheres, and adheresheals to the glans, forming a [[skin]] bridge.<ref>{{REFjournal

[[Intact]] males do not have skin bridges.
