Description The aims of this study were to assess variation and safety in MC practices, as well as resource and training needs related to MC, in a community that has been practicing circumcision traditionally for many generations. While traditional circumcision is the norm in the study community, many parents and young men are turning to “medical” circumcision. This provided the opportunity to collect data on both traditional and medical circumcision practices and outcomes.
