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]
