"La circoncision est sans doute la plus vieille \u00E9nigme de l\u2019histoire de la chirurgie. Effectu\u00E9e depuis l\u2019Antiquit\u00E9, sinon depuis la Pr\u00E9histoire, pour des motifs culturels et religieux, elle \u00E9tait devenue, depuis plus d\u2019un si\u00E8cle, surtout dans le monde anglosaxon, une intervention chirurgicale m\u00E9dicalis\u00E9e, banalis\u00E9e, vid\u00E9e de toute signification symbolique, mais charg\u00E9e, au gr\u00E9 des modes et des lubies m\u00E9dicales, de mille et une vertus hygi\u00E9niques et prophylactiques. Elle concerne de nos jours un cinqui\u00E8me environ de la population masculine mondiale. Quels sont les enjeux \u00E9thiques de la circoncision face au principe d\u2019int\u00E9grit\u00E9 du corps humain ? Peut-elle satisfaire les principes d\u2019\u00E9thique universellement admis ?" . . . "Th\u00E8ses et \u00E9crits acad\u00E9miques" . "Circumcision is probably the oldest enigma in the history of surgery. It has been performed at least since Antiquity \u2013 maybe since prehistoric times \u2013 for cultural and religious reasons. More than a century ago, especially in the English-speaking world, it had become a medicalised surgical intervention. Circumcision was at once trivialised and emptied out from its symbolical signification, and ascribed with a thousand hygienic and prophylactic properties that changed along with medical fads and fashions. Today, about a fifth of the male population is circumcised worldwide. What are the ethical stakes of circumcision when pitted against the principle of human bodily integrity? Can it satisfy universal ethical principles?" . . . .
