Abstract

Introduction: In this review article, we aim to illustratively address abnormal and normal courses of Plastibell (a system designed to remove the correct amount of skin) circumcision. We searched 2 target databases, PubMed and Embase, for Plastibell ring circumcision and recruited photos from circumcised children with plasticbell rings. The ordinary postprocedure healing course may resemble abnormal situations such as infection and dehiscence. Conversely, adverse events are rarely noticed by parents. Thus, medical attention is sought when it is not needed and omitted when the specialist may require an intervention. Conclusion: Providing a pamphlet illustrating standard normal and abnormal features of plastic bell ring circumcision will decrease family stress, emergency referrals, and preventable complications in this standard procedure. © The Author(s) 2024.
