(16) Apply tight diaper for 1 hour.

(5) If necessary, cut small segment out of cone so

that it clears frenulum.

(6) Hold prepuce firmly in place over cone (Fig.

47.5A).

(7) Tie suture tightly around rim of bell so that prepuce is firmly compressed into groove.

(8) Trim prepuce distal to ligature with tissue scissors. Use outer rim of cone as guide.

(9) Break off cone handle. Tissue beneath ligature

will atrophy and separate from bell in 5 to 8 days

(maximum 10 to 12 days) (Fig. 47.5B).

c. Observe and care for circumcision as in steps 17 and

18 of Gomco clamp (E11a).

F. Management of Postoperative

Bleeding

Postoperative bleeding usually stems from inadequate

hemostasis (e.g., unrecognized neonatal hepatitis (14) or

hereditary clotting disorders). Rarely, anomalous vessels are

responsible.

Continuous Ooze

1. Apply manual pressure for 5 to 10 minutes.

Check that the string on the Plastibell is in place

and is sufficiently tight.

2. Assess bleeding site. If continued oozing
