Device displacement

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.
Foreskin sloughing, obstruction of urine flow, and Insufficient foreskin removal have occurred due to displacement of the Prepex device.[1]
