Intraperitoneal bladder perforation
Revision as of 02:20, 19 February 2022 by WikiModEn2 (talk | contribs)
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.[2] There is a history of Plastibell migration causing death,[3] so there is a very substantial question of the medical judgment concerning any physician who performs a non-beneficial, medically-unnecessary, non-therapeutic circumcision with a Plastibell device.
