OBJECTIVE: To determine whether it is necessary to delay discharge of newly circumcised male neonates to observe voiding. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A prospective study was conducted in 1992 and 1993 of 51 healthy male, newly circumcised neonates between 0 and 10 days of age. The neonates were observed for the time of first voiding after circumcision was performed. RESULTS: All neonates voided after circumcision at a mean age of 5.3 +/- 2.5 hours, and there were no complications noted in the study population. CONCLUSION: Healthy male infants who are circumcised without obvious complications can be expected to void, and it is unnecessary to delay hospital discharge to make this observation.
