Teen Circumcision Training Kit

Circumcision is a surgical procedure performed to remove the loose tissue, known as the foreskin, covering the glans of the penis. This worldwide procedure is performed for health, religious, or cultural reasons shortly after birth, around puberty, or during young adulthood. The World Health Organization (WHO), the Joint United Nations Program on HIV and AIDS (UNAIDS), and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) state evidence that indicates male circumcision significantly reduces the risk of female-to-male HIV transmission by over 50%. The Circumcision Trainers have been developed with the assistance from one of the top medical schools in Wisconsin, USA, as well as medical professionals in South Africa and Indonesia. The trainers include the foreskin, glans penis, frenulum, meatus, and coronal groove. These trainers are made with soft, lifelike material, which is pliable, delicate, and realistic to the touch. Medical students, physicians, and other practitioners can learn, practice, and improve realistic, hands-on skills for this delicate procedure without the worry of learning on a live patient. Practice simulating dorsal block injection, separating the inner lining of the foreskin (preputial epithelium) from its attachment to the glans, surgical removal of the foreskin, and suturing techniques. These trainers may also be used to demonstrate the procedure and practice aftercare skills to family members. Since there are different methods of circumcision, the Circumcision Trainers have been designed for Mogen clamp method, Guillotine clamp method, Gomco clamp method, Plastibell method, dorsal slit method, forceps guided method, and sleeve circumcision.

The Teen Circumcision Training Kit is a complete kit for all circumcision training needs. Includes one base, six glans penis cores, six foreskins, instruments (scalpel, 4-1/2″ micro-forceps, 6″ precision probe, Iris research scissors, 5″ straight Halstead mosquito forceps, 5″ curved Halstead mosquito forceps, Ethicon suture thread with needle), instrument case, instructions, and soft nylon carrying case.

Why Choose the Teen Circumcision Training Kit for Your Surgical Skills Lab or Medical Training Programme in India?

The Teen Circumcision Training Kit (Item No. 1017256 / W44064TN, MPN: LF00921U) is a complete, multi-method circumcision procedural training kit from Nasco Healthcare / Lifecast Body Simulation, USA — designed specifically for the adolescent and young adult patient anatomy. Developed in collaboration with one of the leading medical schools in Wisconsin, USA, and medical professionals in South Africa and Indonesia, the Teen kit provides medical students, general surgery residents, paediatric surgery trainees, and NACO-aligned HIV-prevention programme providers in India with realistic, hands-on circumcision training across seven distinct surgical methods — without the clinical and ethical risks of learning on a live patient.

Why Teen Circumcision Training Matters in India:

Male circumcision is performed in India for religious, cultural, and clinical reasons across adolescent and young adult patient groups — including surgical management of phimosis, balanitis, paraphimosis, and recurrent urinary tract infections, as well as religious circumcision in Muslim communities. The World Health Organization (WHO), the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have documented that male circumcision significantly reduces female-to-male HIV transmission risk by over 50% — making circumcision training a component of NACO-aligned HIV-prevention programme capacity-building in India. The Teen kit trains the anatomically appropriate technique for the adolescent and young adult size range — distinct from the Infant Circumcision Training Kit (W44064IN), which trains neonatal circumcision.

Anatomical Fidelity — What the Trainer Replicates:

The trainer is constructed from soft, lifelike material that is pliable, delicate, and realistic to the touch — replicating the feel and response of actual adolescent penile tissue. Anatomical structures present include the foreskin, glans penis, frenulum, meatus, and coronal groove — every structure the surgeon must identify, handle, and protect during the circumcision procedure.

Procedures and Techniques Trainable:

• Dorsal block injection (local anaesthetic technique)
• Separation of the inner lining of the foreskin (preputial epithelium) from its attachment to the glans
• Surgical removal of the foreskin
• Suturing techniques (using the included Ethicon suture with needle)

Seven Circumcision Methods Supported:

The trainer is designed to support training across all major circumcision methods in current clinical use:

• Mogen clamp method
• Guillotine clamp method
• Gomco clamp method
• Plastibell method
• Dorsal slit method
• Forceps-guided method
• Sleeve circumcision

Each method can be practised and repeated using the six interchangeable glans penis cores and six foreskins included in the kit — making this a high-repetition, multi-session training resource without ongoing consumable cost.

Complete Kit — Everything Included:

• 1 base unit
• 6 glans penis cores (interchangeable, for repeated exercises)
• 6 foreskins (replaceable for repeated exercises)
• Full instrument set: scalpel, 4½″ micro-forceps, 6″ precision probe, Iris research scissors, 5″ straight Halstead mosquito forceps, 5″ curved Halstead mosquito forceps
• Ethicon suture thread with needle
• Instrument case
• Instruction manual
• Soft nylon carrying case

Also Available from SEM Trainers: Infant Circumcision Training Kit (W44064IN / LF00920U) — for neonatal circumcision training. Contact SEM Trainers for the full circumcision training kit range.

Why Buy from SEM Trainers?
SEM Trainers & Systems has over 30 years of experience supplying medical simulators to 1,500+ institutions across 28 states in India. We provide pan-India delivery, on-site installation, faculty orientation, and dedicated after-sales support. For NACO-aligned or NHM circumcision programme capacity-building, we can arrange institutional invoicing and bulk procurement.

Q: What is the difference between the Teen and Infant Circumcision Training Kits?
A: The Teen kit (W44064TN / LF00921U) is sized and anatomically scaled for adolescent and young adult patients — the age group in whom circumcision is performed for clinical reasons (phimosis, balanitis), religious reasons, or HIV-prevention programme contexts. The Infant kit (W44064IN / LF00920U) is sized for neonatal circumcision. Both are available from SEM Trainers.

Q: How many practice exercises can be performed per kit?
A: The kit includes 6 glans penis cores and 6 foreskins — each providing a full circumcision training exercise. After completion, the used foreskin is removed and replaced with a fresh one for the next trainee. Six full procedure exercises are available per kit at the outset; replacement foreskins can be enquired about through SEM Trainers.

Q: Which circumcision methods can be trained with this kit?
A: Seven — Mogen clamp, Guillotine clamp, Gomco clamp, Plastibell, dorsal slit, forceps-guided, and sleeve circumcision. The trainer is designed to accommodate all seven methods currently in clinical use.

Q: Are all instruments included?
A: Yes. The kit includes a scalpel, 4½″ micro-forceps, 6″ precision probe, Iris research scissors, 5″ straight and curved Halstead mosquito forceps, and Ethicon suture thread with needle — a complete instrument set for all seven methods. Clamps (Mogen, Gomco, Plastibell) are not included as they are typically available in the institution’s surgical instrument inventory.

Q: Is this kit relevant for HIV-prevention training programmes in India?
A: Yes. WHO, UNAIDS, and CDC evidence confirms that male circumcision reduces female-to-male HIV transmission risk by over 50%. For NACO-aligned HIV-prevention programme providers building circumcision service delivery capacity in India, the Teen kit trains the appropriate technique for the post-pubertal patient age group most commonly targeted by voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) programmes.

Q: Can this kit also be used for aftercare skills training?
A: Yes. The OEM design supports both procedure training and post-circumcision aftercare demonstration to patients and family members — making it suitable for patient education as well as provider training.
