Plastibell 1.8Cm 5/Pack

The Plastibell device is a plastic ring on the end of a central removable post. The ring is placed between the glans and foreskin. A tight ligature of moistened suture is placed around the foreskin and tightened into a sulcus on the ring. Foreskin distal to the ring is excised and the handle of the device broken off. The plastic ring stays in place, with the ligature tied tightly around the protective ring, for 5 to 10 days and falls off spontaneously. The appearance of the small amount of necrotic skin may worry parents, and it may be complicated with incomplete or irregular skin edges if the ligature is not tied tightly enough.
