| | '''Head splitting''' is the [[Bisection|bisection]] of the glans of the [[Penis|penis]]. The procedure is usually carried out using a [[Scalpel|scalpel]] or surgical scissors (although cauterizing, electronic cauterizing or laser may also be used). The wound often needs to be cauterized, either with [[Silver Nitrate|Silver Nitrate]] or with heat. Post-procedural bleeding is relatively heavy and tends to last several days. |
