    AbstractThe value of adjunctive penile block for analgesia, after circumcision in children using 0.5 percent bupivacaine has been evaluated in this randomized, prospective trial. Significantly more children without nerve block were found to require analgesics, administered by injection orally, in the first 12 hour period when compared with children given the nerve block. Penile block is a procedure that is safe, simple to achieve, free from complications, and covers the postoperative period when analgesia is much needed.
