Resumen

El comportamiento sexual y reproductivo de las personas recibe historicamente influencias sociales, politicas y religiosas. Recientemente, se propuso la circuncision masculina como estrategia de salud publica para disminuir la transmision del Virus de Inmunodeficiencia Humana (VIH). El objetivo del presente articulo es revisar en un contexto historico las implicaciones de la circuncision masculina y el impacto en la prevencion de la transmisión del VIH. Se realizo una revision no sistematica de la bibliografia disponible sobre el tema hasta la fecha, en las bases de datos Pubmed y Bireme. Los primeros registros de la circuncision masculina datan de hace mas de 4000 años. El uso se dio mayoritariamente en el contexto religioso. Tradicionalmente, se cuestiona la practica de la circuncision femenina, mas no asi la masculina. La indicacion terapeutica de circuncision incluye fimosis, parafimosis e infecciones repetitivas del glande; no obstante, la recomendacion profilactica es cuestionada. Es frecuente la aparicion de complicaciones medicas y psicologicas asociadas a la circuncision masculina. La evidencia disponible muestra disminucion consistente de la transmision del Virus de Papiloma Humano (VPH) y la Clamidia tracomatis, pero no del Virus de Inmunodeficiencia Humana (VIH). Existen cuestionamientos eticos y medicos asociados a la practica sistematica de la circuncision masculina, sobre todo en menores de edad. La circuncision masculina es una practica milenaria, efectiva para disminuir la transmision del VPH y la Clamidia tracomatis, pero no del VIH. Se requiere de un mayor debate acerca de las implicaciones medicas y eticas de la practica de la circuncisión masculina. (DUAZARY 2013 No. 1, 33 - 40).
