Necrosis means [d]eath of cells through injury or disease, especially in a localized area of a tissue or organ.[1]

The Plastibell and Prepex circumcision devices intentionally cause necrosis of the foreskin by ischaemia, which causes the foreskin to die and fall off.

Tasci et al. (2020) surveyed the medico-legal aspects of post-circumcision necrosis.[2]

Necrosis is a complication of circumcision.

Case reports

Sterenberg et al. (1981) reported a case of necrosis of the glans penis after ritual circumcision of a ten-day-old boy by a mohel. The boy had a blackened glans penis. He was hospitalized but the necrotic glans penis fell off.[3]

Barnes et al. (2006) reported the case of a two-week-old male infant who developed glans necrosis after a non-therapeutic circumcision. The boy is reported to have suffered only cosmetic damage with no functional impairment expected.[4]

Aminsharifi et al. (2013) reported two cases of glans necrosis after circumcision.[5]
