Penile herpes simplex virus type 1 infection (after Jewish ritual circumcision) is caused by the practice of metzitzah b'peh by mohelim in which the newly circumcised penis of the infant boy is taken into the mouth of the attending mohel and sucked.[1]

Holt (1913) showed the practice to cause infection with tuberculosis more than one hundred years ago.[2]

Herpes simplex virus infection

More recently reports of infant boys being infected with herpes simplex virus have come from the United States and Israel.

United States

Cases of infection of baby boys with herpes simplex have been reported in New York. Rubin & Lanzkowsky (2000) reported two cases of cutaneous herpes simplex infection after ritual circumcision.[3] Gesundheit et al. (2004) reported eight cases of HSV infection following ritual circumcision with oral suction. One infant developed HSV encephalitis with neurologic sequelae (long-term brain damage manifested by seizures and infantile spasms). Four had recurrent episodes. Six were treated with intravenous intravenous acyclovir. Infants with recurrent HSV infection were treated with oral acyclovir. Four mohels tested positive for HSV.[4]

Thomas R. Frieden, M.D.[a 1], M.P.H.[a 2], then New York City Health Commissioner, in an open letter to the Jewish community reported that one death and brain damage in another had occurred and warned against the practice of metzitzah b'peh.[5]

Israel

Distel et al. (2003) reported a case of herpes simplex infection after ritual circumcision in Israel.[6] Koren et al. (2013) surveyed births in Israel over an eight year period. Twenty-two cases of neonatal herpes simplex virus (NHSV) infection were found. One boy died.[7] Tzvi-Behr et al. (2016) reported five cases of infants with genital herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection after Jewish ritual circumcision. All infants were treated with intravenous acyclovir for 14 to 21 days as recommended, and were discharged at good clinical condition. One infant still suffered from febrile seizures after one year.[8]
