摘要:
A male circumcision device which reasonably skilled and trained caregivers in emerging nations can use to perform painless, safe, effective, quick and minimal cost circumcisions includes: (a) an enclosure with an opening configured to allow it to slide, after the penile foreskin has been rolled back, over the glans of the patients penis until this opening is located adjacent the point where the foreskin attaches to the penis, the enclosure further having a plurality of cavities which are arranged around its perimeter and proximate its opening, (b) male parts of a clamping assembly, each being configured to be detachably fitted into one of the enclosures cavities and each having an elongated protuberance with a distal end that can pierce the penile foreskin, and (c) female parts of a clamping assembly, each having an opening to receive the protuberances distal ends and each having a configuration adapted to allow these male and female parts to mate together so as to apply a compressive force between them that aids in holding a patients remaining foreskin together while it heals.
