AB  - Ischemic complications of glans penis following circumcision are rare, and if 
      occurs can culminate in irreversible necrosis with severe long-term consequences. 
      Here we present 2 challenging cases of neonates suffering from acute severe glans 
      penis ischemia after circumcision that were treated by hyperbaric oxygen 
      treatment (HBOT). In addition to case presentations, the literature related to 
      complications of circumcision and the physiological effects of HBOT are being 
      reviewed. Based on the review and the case presented, we conclude that HBOT can 
      be used as salvage treatment for circumcision induced glans ischemia as early as 
      possible before full necrosis develops.
