=== The pin ===
A small safety pin may be used to bring the edges of the dorsal slit together over the flare of the bell before bringing the draw stud through the base plate. The safety pin should be inserted through both the foreskin and the mucosa so that care is taken not to omit the mucosal layer. In addition, the clinician must take special care to make sure that the sharp end of the safety pin does not cause inadvertent injury to the clinician or the infant.<ref>{{REFweb | lastname=David Peleg, M.D., and Ann Steiner, M.D | first= | year=1998-09"peleg-15 | title=The Gomco Circumcision: Common Problems and Solutions | url=http://www.aafp.org/afp/1998/0915/p891.html | publisher= | accessdate=}}<steiner1998" /ref>
