Aim is : To define the preoperative parameters that may influence the results of distal hypospadias repair
Full description
Hypospadias is a congenital deformity where the opening of the urethra (the meatus) is sited on the underside (ventral) part of the penis, anywhere from the glans to the perineum.
It occurs in 1 in 250 live male births. it is often associated with "hooded" foreskin and chordee (ventral curvature of the penis shaft).
Hypospadias can be classified according to the anatomical location of meatus:
Distal-anterior hypospadias (located on the glans or distal shaft of the penis and the most common type of hypospadias) Intermediate-middle (penile). Proximal-posterior (penoscrotal, scrotal, perineal).
Diagnosis includes a description of the local findings:
Position, shape and width of the orifice Presence of atretic urethra and division of corpus spongiosum Appearance of the preputial hood and scrotum Size of the penis Curvature of the penis on erection. Aim of hypospadias surgery :(2) Is to correct penile curvature,to form neo-urethera of an adequate size, to bring the neomeatus to the tip of glans, and offer satisfactory cosmetic results.
The ideal age at surgery for primary hypospadias repair is usually 6-18 months. The complication rate is about 10% in distal hypospadias repair.
