Question:

What is a dorsal slit? I think I had one when I was a baby but I don't know for sure. How can I tell?


Answers:

its a circumcision technique. Here's more info from webmd:

The second choice is what is called a "dorsal slit" this opens up the foreskin by simply cutting, under local or general anesthesia, a one or two inch longitudinal cut at the top through the foreskin, across and past the scar. This then allows you to retract the foreskin yet maintains the look and presence.
