METHODS: A prospective comparative multicenter study was performed between November 2019 and October 2021. Patients underwent circumcision using a DCSD (CircCurer TM or the ZSR device) according to the surgeon preference and device availability. Operative time, need for accessory stitches, complications, spontaneous fall out of the staples, postoperative pain, and patient satisfaction were evaluated. RESULTS: A total of 215 patients were enrolled, 120 underwent circumcision using CircCurer TM (Group A) and 95 patients using ZSR (Group B). No differences were observed in baseline characteristics between the two groups (p>0.05). Mean (SD) operative time was 7.0 (2.5) minutes with no significant difference between the groups (p=0.678). Seven patients (5.8%) in Group A and 2 (2.1%) in Group B required accessory stitches (p=0.156). Four subjects (3.3%) in Group A and 1 (1.1%) in group B presented hematoma (p=0.266). Surgical site infection occurred in 1 (0.8%) in Group A and 2 (2.1%) in Group B (p=0.413). Staples fell out spontaneously in 39 patients (32.5%) of Group A and 47 (49.5%) of Group B (p<0.001). Median (IQR) NRS for postoperative pain was 2.5 (0-4) in Group A and 2.0 (0-4) in Group B (p=0.284). At 2 months, patients of both groups reported a median (IQR) satisfaction of 9 (8-9) points (p=0.469). CONCLUSIONS: DCSDs appear to allow effective and safe circumcision, with short operative times, uncommon and mild complications, and high patient satisfaction.
