Stapler circumcision is a minimally invasive procedure that is used for safe, quick and efficient removal of the penile foreskin. The procedure is performed using a circumcision stapler (also called anastomat), an instrument specially designed for circumcision.
During the surgery, the stapler is fitted over the penis, and once fired, it removes the foreskin in one quick motion and closes the incision using a silicone ring/non-bioabsorbable staples. Since the amount of foreskin to be removed is predetermined in the procedure, it is extremely safe and provides the desired results for both the patient and the surgeon.

The diagnostic tests required for stapler circumcision vary based on whether the surgery is medically necessary or not. Often, patients get circumcised for aesthetic or religious reasons, and for these patients, only a general health checkup is necessary before the surgery.
If you have pain, infection, or inflammation near the tip of your penis, then you may need circumcision for medical reasons. To determine that, the surgeon will perform a variety of diagnostic tests such as:
Stapler circumcision is an advanced circumcision procedure that allows for faster recovery and better results as compared to open circumcision. The surgery can be performed under both general and local anesthesia, although local anesthesia is preferred.
Once the patient has been anesthetized, the penis is disinfected and the stapler is fitted on the penis. Proper fitting of the device on the penis is important to avoid tearing the foreskin and to protect the penis glans from the surgical blade. Then, the stapler is triggered, i.e., it removes the foreskin and closes the incision using a silicone ring at the same time.
Finally, the device is unscrewed and removed, and the penis is pressed with gauze to stop any bleeding that may have occurred. The wound is dressed using a compression bandage and the patient is moved to a recovery ward for postoperative observation.
What Happens During ZSR Circumcision?
Hospital Admission
Patient arrives at the hospital at the scheduled time.
Registration and admission formalities are completed.
Vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, temperature, and oxygen level) are checked.
The urologist reviews the patient's medical history and examination findings.
Pre-surgery Preparation
The urologist performs a final assessment of the foreskin.
The procedure is explained, and consent forms are signed.
The surgical area is cleaned and sterilized.
An IV line may be started if required.
Anesthesia Administration
The patient is taken to the operation theatre.
Local anesthesia (penile block) is usually administered; short general anesthesia may be used in children or selected patients.
The patient becomes pain-free and comfortable before the procedure begins.
ZSR Circumcision Procedure Begins
The surgeon measures the foreskin and selects the appropriate ZSR stapling device.
The foreskin is positioned correctly within the device.
The ZSR stapler simultaneously removes the excess foreskin and places a circular row of staples to seal the wound.
Bleeding is checked and controlled, if necessary.
A sterile dressing is applied to protect the surgical site.
Recovery Room Observation
The patient is shifted to the recovery room.
Nurses monitor blood pressure, pulse, oxygen level, and comfort.
The patient is observed for any bleeding or immediate complications.
Once fully awake and stable, the patient can start taking fluids.
Discharge
Most patients are discharged on the same day.
Pain relief medications, antibiotics (if prescribed), and wound care instructions are provided.
Patients are advised to keep the area clean and dry and avoid strenuous activities and sexual activity until fully healed.
A follow-up appointment is scheduled to monitor healing and ensure a smooth recovery.
After the surgery, you will be discharged on the same day, within a few hours so that you can rest and recover at home. You will need to visit your urologist for a follow-up consultation and wound inspection 2-3 days after the surgery.
During this visit, the surgeon will remove the compression bandage and examine the surgical site for any signs of bleeding or infection. After this, the wound will be left open to recover. The silicone ring left on the penis will fall off on its own within 10-14 days once the incision has healed enough.
You will be able to return to work within a week of the surgery but you must avoid any sexual activity, including masturbation, for at least a month. You should also avoid strenuous exercises like running or weight lifting as they may strain the muscles surrounding the penis and delay the recovery.
If your child is getting circumcised, you should consult their pediatrician before the surgery regarding anesthesia usage and recovery rate.

There are many different reasons for which you may require or want stapler circumcision, some of which are listed below.
Laser circumcision is quite effective for balanitis treatment, phimosis surgery (tight foreskin treatment) paraphimosis treatment, posthitis treatment and balanoposthitis surgery
Generally, there are two most common types of patients for circumcision: Adults with penile problems and newborns getting circumcision due to religious reasons. Currently, according to most research studies, the benefits of stapler circumcision outweigh the risks. Circumcision reduces the risk of contracting UTIs, STIs, HIV, etc. It can even lead to lower risk of developing penile cancer in men and cervical cancer in their sexual partners.
In the past, open circumcision was the norm for both these types of patients, but nowadays, stapler and laser circumcision are preferred. Of these two techniques, stapler circumcisionis often preferred as it provides better results with minimal complications.
Stapler circumcision preserves the tissue surrounding the surgical site and removes the foreskin with minimal blood loss. It has a short recovery period and the patient is completely recovered within a couple of weeks. The silicone ring left on the penis prevents postsurgical infections and aids the recovery of the patient.
At Pristyn Care we treat various foreskin infection by laser circumcision, stapler circumcision and frenuloplasty surgery.
The recovery steps of stapler circumcision in both children and adults are about the same, however, babies generally heal quicker, with the recovery time for newborns being less than 7-10 days. In newborns, the silicone ring falls off within 5-7 days, as compared to 10-14 days in adults.
You can follow the given tips to promote recovery:
Ajay (pseudonym) is an office worker in his late 20s. He has an active sexual life but lately, he started having pain and difficulty while having sex. Within a few days, he also started experiencing pain while peeing. Since this is a sensitive condition, he was hesitant about consulting a physician.
When he looked online for treatment, he landed on Pristyn Care. He immediately called us and booked an appointment. He met up with our urologist the next day and found out he has paraphimosis. He carefully consulted our urologist regarding his treatment options and finally decided to get circumcision surgery for quick and long-term relief. We discussed his treatment options, i.e., stapler and laser circumcision, and finally decided the best option for him was stapler circumcision.
His surgery was scheduled within the next couple of days and it was performed without any delays or complications. To make his treatment seamless, we handled all the documentation regarding his hospitalization and insurance.
He was in a little pain for 2-3 days but could immediately return to work after a day’s rest. He recovered completely within a couple of weeks of the surgery. Although not required, he visited us for a couple of free post-surgical consultations to ensure there are no complications. He was very grateful to our urologist and left raving reviews for us after the treatment.
The cost of stapler circumcision in India ranges from Rs. 35,000 to Rs. 60,000. The stapler circumcision cost of the procedure depends on a variety of factors, including:

ZSR circumcision is an advanced surgical technique used to remove the foreskin with the help of a specially designed stapling device. Compared to conventional circumcision, ZSR circumcision is associated with less bleeding, shorter operating time, and faster recovery in many patients. It is commonly performed to treat conditions such as phimosis, recurrent balanitis, paraphimosis, and recurrent foreskin infections.
ZSR circumcision offers several advantages over conventional circumcision for suitable patients, including a shorter procedure, minimal bleeding, improved cosmetic results, and quicker recovery. However, the most appropriate circumcision method depends on the patient’s age, medical condition, and the surgeon’s clinical assessment. A urologist can recommend the best treatment option after examination.
ZSR circumcision may be recommended for adults and older children who have medical conditions such as phimosis, paraphimosis, recurrent balanitis, recurrent foreskin infections, or difficulty retracting the foreskin. After evaluating your symptoms and overall health, a urologist will determine whether ZSR circumcision is the right treatment for you.
A ZSR circumcision procedure usually takes about 15 to 30 minutes and is generally performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s age and medical condition. Most patients are discharged on the same day after a short period of observation.
During ZSR circumcision, anesthesia is used to keep the procedure comfortable. Mild pain, swelling, or discomfort may occur after the surgery, but these symptoms usually improve over the next few days with prescribed medications and proper wound care.
Recovery after ZSR circumcision varies from person to person. Most patients can return to their routine activities within a few days, while complete healing generally takes 2 to 4 weeks. Your surgeon may advise avoiding strenuous exercise and sexual activity until the surgical site has healed completely.
Some of the commonly reported benefits of ZSR circumcision include:
Lower risk of certain foreskin related complications.
Like any surgical procedure, ZSR circumcision carries some potential risks, including mild pain, swelling, temporary bleeding, infection, delayed wound healing, or discomfort during recovery. Although complications are uncommon when performed by an experienced surgeon, it is important to follow all postoperative instructions and attend scheduled follow up visits.
The cost of ZSR circumcision in India depends on several factors, including the city, hospital, surgeon’s experience, diagnostic tests, anesthesia charges, and insurance coverage. After a consultation and clinical evaluation, your doctor can provide a personalized estimate based on your treatment needs.
No. ZSR circumcision does not affect fertility or hormone production. Once healing is complete, most men can resume normal sexual activity after their surgeon’s approval. Following the recommended recovery period helps ensure proper healing and reduces the risk of complications.
