title: Cost Analysis of Adult Male Circumcision with the PrePex Device versus Surgery in Rwanda.
abstract: In this study from Rwanda, voluntary adult male circumcision costs 33% less with trained nurses using the PrePex device compared with physician-nurse teams performing dorsal-slit surgery. These cost savings and the documented safety, speed, and efficacy of the PrePex procedure, serve Rwanda's HIV prevention program.
