Circumcision is one of the most common surgical procedures in all age groups. Before the circumcision procedure, asepsis is provided with a surface disinfectant. Various methods can be used for this process. Povidone iodine, which has been used for years during the transition from traditional circumcision methods to surgical circumcision methods; tissue damage, allergic reactions and increase in pain level. For this reason, the investigators aimed to compare it with Hypochlorous acid (Crystalin), which is a less toxic and more physiological antiseptic solution.

Material and Method:

Newborns to be circumcised randomly were divided into two groups as Hypochlorosis group and Povidone iodine group. At the beginning of the circumcision procedure, a culture was taken in the form of a prepucial swab 1 minute after the cleaning of the local area and the inner surface of the prepuce. Then circumcision was performed. Culture results and complications were compared.
