Circumcision using the Mogen clamp.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the results of 313 circumcisions using the Mogen clamp. This procedure was done between 1 day and 2 years of age in all but four patients. The complication rate was low (1.6%). Two patients had local infection, one mild hemorrhage, one concealed penis, and one postcircumcision phimosis. Circumcision using the Mogen clamp is a simple, quick, and safe procedure.

Neonatal hemochromatosis: failure of deferoxamine therapy.

We describe a premature neonate with severe hepatic dysfunction from birth which progressed to fatal hepatic failure at 3 months of age. The diagnosis of a familial disorder, neonatal hemochromatosis, was made, and therapy was attempted with deferoxamine. Features of iron metabolism are presented, and this infant's illness is contrasted with other liver diseases of infancy associated with hepatic iron overload.
