  posthectomy - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
A partial or full posthectomy is a form of circumcision which removes the foreskin of a male, or more specifically, the skin, mucosa, and muscle tissue covering the glans, including the ridged band.

 History of Circumcision
Laumann did not consider the impact of economic factors such as financial incentive, yet there is evidence that this may be the most important influence of all: in 1982 California dropped medically unnecessary circumcision from the schedule of benefits covered by Medicaid, and the practice went into steady decline.
Preventive posthectomy has always been an experimental and controversial surgery, never one endorsed by the medical profession as a whole.
Given the uncertainty of its benefits, the high risk of harm, and the significance of the organ being so dramatically altered, you might expect a few ultra-nervous adults to elect it for themselves, but not that it would be inflicted on millions of babies who had never even inquired.

 Phimosis in antiquity
Greek medical writers also devoted considerable space to surgical and non-surgical methods of foreskin restoration following posthectomy [22].
The wealth of classical medical writing devoted to the correction of lipodermus and posthectomy, when considered against the relative paucity of writing on phimosis as defined by medical writers in antiquity, lends strength to the argument that inflammatory or cicatricial stricture of the preputial orifice was a rare and unusual urological condition.
In contrast to the nineteenth-century conceptualisation of phimosis, which is predicated upon an alleged universality and defined purely in terms of a misunderstanding of preputial development and a biased view of penile morphology, the conception of phimosis in antiquity was based on rarity and on clinically verifiable histological pathology.
