'''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, [[Infection| sepsis]], [[Urethral fistula| urethrocutaneous fistulae]], and partial [[necrosis]] of the [[glans penis]].<ref>{{REFjournal
