Tachycardia and heart failure after ritual circumcision.

A Mor, G Eshel, M Aladjem, G Mundel.   

Abstract

Four newborn babies developed acute heart failure a few hours after circumcision at 8 days. During this procedure, a sponge soaked in epinephrine was applied to the circumcision site and left there for several hours. Treatment was with digoxin and diuretics and signs of heart failure disappeared within 24-72 hours.
