Intraperitoneal bladder perforation is an iatrogenic complication of using the Plastibell device to perform a medically-unnecessary, non-therapeutic circumcision of an infant boy.[1]
The seventy-year-old Plastibell device has a long history of migrating from its intended position where it may cause blockage of urination and other issues, up to and including necrosis of the glans penis.[2] [3] There is a history of Plastibell migration causing death of a previously healthy baby boy,[4] so there is a very substantial question concerning the medical judgment of any physician who performs a non-beneficial, medically-unnecessary, non-therapeutic circumcision with a Plastibell device.
