Abstract
The formation of penile keloid after circumcision is an uncommon complication. Herein, we report two pediatric cases of large circumferential keloids that developed post-circumcision and were successfully treated by surgical excision and intralesional triamcinolone injections. In addition, we provide a comprehensive review of the reported cases of penile keloids that developed after circumcision in the literature to highlight the various presentations, treatment options, and outcomes for this condition.
Keywords: circumcision; keloid; keloid scar; keloid treatment; penile keloid.
