==Considerations before consent is granted==
<blockquote>
Regarding adult circumcision, the current knowledge of preputial
and penile neuroanatomy and structure underscores the importance
of meticulous patient selection for this procedure. Specifically, when
adult circumcision is to be performed, factors such as the position of
the circumcision scar line, the amount of inner prepuce retained, the
tightness of the remaining penile skin, and whether a frenulectomy
is performed should be carefully discussed and agreed upon by both
the patient and the surgeon, with all decisions clearly documented in
the informed consent. Recent survey findings underscore this need
for dialogue: Callegari et al. showed that preferences regarding the
amount of inner preputial remnant retained after circumcision vary
considerably among individuals, reinforcing the importance of engaging patients in personalized discussions to align surgical decisions with their expectations.<ref name="cepeda2025">{{REFjournal
