2009 data on NHS NTC in Leeds and its follow ups

This is a letter providing responses to questions I asked in 2011 about child NTC funded by the NHS in Leeds and its follow ups. Note this was an early piece of research which mistakenly did not ask for clarification about diagnosis of follow up issues - we therefore cannot be sure which subsequent presentations and admissions were likely or definately related to the prior circumcision. However the data is suggestive of significant rates of complications, particularly the 5/89 child NTC subjects who required follow up urological surgeries. See 2011 Leeds return for more clear information on the rate of complications.
