The Gomco Or ‘Little Trimmer’ Clamp
This is a safe technique preferred and used by Dr Demediuk. http://www.circlist.com/instrstechs/gomco.html
The Plastibell
The use of this technique means that the baby must go home with a small plastic device tied to his penis that allows the foreskin to dry out and fall off over subsequent days or weeks. This, while very similar to the Gomco/’Little trimmer’ method, is a more lengthy and difficult procedure to perform and has the risk of some extra complications. http://www.circlist.com/instrstechs/plastibell.html
The Mogen Clamp
This technique is slightly quicker to perform but has a more serious risk profile with possible damage to the tip of the penis. http://www.circlist.com/instrstechs/mogen.html
