Catheterization of intact boys with a non-retractile foreskin in the United States and Canada frequently presents unique issues caused by the poor training and lack of knowledge of North American health care providers, who do not know how to insert a catheter when the boy has an intact foreskin. Such providers may attempt premature forced foreskin retraction to the harm of the boy or even demand that the boy be circumcised to permit catheter insertion.

This problem does not occur in other advanced nations where health care providers are properly trained in the care of intact boys.

Carmack & Milos (2017) identified the issue with intact boys and provided all necessary information on the technique of installing a catheter in an intact boy.[1]
