The prism refinement is for inflation layers and generally assumes you split the whole layer; depending on the version you'll get an error/failure/warning if the end of the prism split isn't terminated at the "end" of a wall. Not something you want to use in this scenario. 

Is the refinement/coarsening region being updated a lot? Ie is the adaption routine being triggered very frequently in that region? Can you post some images of the mesh?
