Device displacement occurs when a medical device, which is attached to the penis to crush the foreskin, causing ischemia and necrosis of the distal part of the foreskin, become dislocated. Devices include the Plastibell, the Prepex, and the TARA KLamp.
The Plastibell ring has a tendency to migrate proximally. This causes such injuries as extensive skin loss, dysuria, sepsis, urethrocutaneous fistulae, and partial necrosis of the glans penis.[1]
Foreskin sloughing, obstruction of urine flow, and Insufficient foreskin removal have occurred due to displacement of the Prepex device.[2]
