@AmerAcadPeds asserting that the benefits of non therapeutic infant circumcision outweigh the risks, while at the same time admitting “the true incidence of complications after newborn circumcision is unknown."#i2#tweetiatricians http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/early/2013/03/12/peds.2012-2896 …1 reply 3 retweets 5 likes -
