Adolescent and adult circumcision may also be carried out with one of several plastic, one-use, disposable ring devices. These devices work by clamping the foreskin tightly so that it is crushed and flow is cut off completely. Ischemic necrosis ensues and the foreskin dies. It may then be cut off or left to fall off. Ring devices include the [[Tara KLamp]], the [[PrePex]], and the [[Shang Ring]]. | Adolescent and adult circumcision may also be carried out with one of several plastic, one-use, disposable ring devices.
