Hypospadias surgery is hampered with complications. This problem has been addressed by several different methods of reconstructive surgery. More than 300 different procedures have been described in the literature for the treatment of this condition [1]. This considerable number of different operative interventions reflects the frustration of surgeons facing the high rate of complications that r...

Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital malformations of the genitourinary tract in males. It is an incomplete fusion of urethral folds early in fetal development and may be associated with other malformations of the genital tract. The etiology is poorly understood and may be hormonal, genetic, or environmental, but most often is idiopathic or multifactorial. Among many possible risk f...

Background: Hypospadias is a congenital anomaly on the penis, in which meatal orifice opens ventrally and proximal to tip of penis. In this regard, two common treatment methods are tubularized incised-plate urethroplasty (TIP) Mathieu (MIP) technique. The present study aimed compare early long-term outcomes TIP MIP among patients with distal penile hypospadias. Objectives: was also evaluate pos...

UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION X-linked congenital adrenal hypoplasia is a rare developmental disorder of the human adrenal cortex and is caused by deletion or mutation of the dosage-sensitive sex reversal adrenal hypoplasia congenita critical region of the X chromosome, gene 1 (DAX-1) gene. Most affected children present with failure to thrive, salt wasting and hypoglycemic convulsions in the firs...

background: in most of defecography films, the symphysis pubis is obscured, especially in obese patients, and the parameters will change in values if x-ray is interpreted by different reviewers or if the patient changes his/her position between the phases. this study was carried out to determine how to do the defecography to obtain fixed parameters. â  methods: eighty patients that had been can...

Congenital chordee and penile torsion are commonly observed in the presence of hypospadias, but can also be seen in boys with the meatus in its orthotopic position. Varying degrees of penile curvature are observed in 4-10% of males in the absence of hypospadias. Penile torsion can be observed at birth or in older boys who were circumcised at birth. Surgical management of congenital curvature wi...

We presented a case of penile torsion due to previous hypospadias surgery. A patient applied to our clinic for treatment of hypospadias fistula and accompanying penile torsion. Patient’s urethral fistula was repaired first and penile torsion was corrected in the second stage due to multiple fistula tracts. Proximal based flip flap technique was used for closure of the fistula and simple deglovi...

Methods Atotal of 47 consecutive children underwent surgical repair of distal hypospadias in our department. Urethroplasties were performed by the following techniques: stentless meatal advancement-glanuloplasty (MAGPI) or glans approximation procedure (GAP) for glanular hypospadias (14) and tubularized incised plate (TIP) urethroplasty for coronal, subcoronal and midpenil hypospadias with an i...

Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital anomalies occurring in approximately 1 of 200 to 1 of 300 live births.(1) Many operations have been described for repair of hypospadias. The introduction of Tubularized Incised-Plate (TIP) urethroplasty by Snodgrass in 1994 have resulted in a revolution in management of different types of hypospadias (distal and proximal either new cases or re-op...
