Data were analyzed inclusively to patient age, the anesthesia method used, Monopolar diathermy usage, early presentation, method of circumcision and positive wound culture.

It is a cohort prospective study. All male children who had penile ischaemia after circumcision were included in the study between April 2017 and October 2020. A special designed protocol includes early admission of a child in Paediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Catheterization by suitable size silicon Foley's catheter appropriate for the age.

Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy is a specially designed cabinet for infants and neonates with a barometric pressure equal to 760 mmHg for 20 minutes daily, then gradually increase up to one hour daily for 5 days per week (fig. 1). The chamber was kept warm. The babies were fed before entering the chamber and if signs of hunger appear during therapy. The baby was continuously monitored with pulse oximeter. Older children are managed in the conventional Hyperbaric Oxygen chamber with the same regimen. Proper surgical debridement together with daily topic dressing with nitroglycerin ointment (2%). The treatment continued through the admission period. Follow up period range from 6 months up to 3 years.
