Tubularized incised plate urethroplasty was performed to repair 20 distal and 5 mid-penile hypospadias cases. In distal hypospadias repair meatal stenosis occurred in 1 patient and urethral fistula in another. The overall complication rate in this group was thus 10%. Among midpenile hypospadias cases meatal stenosis was observed in 1 (20%) patient. As a conclusion, tubularized incised plate ure...

PURPOSE Meatal stenosis is still a common problem in tubularized incised plate urethroplasty. In this study, we aimed to seek for a relationship between the size of urethral catheter and meatal stenosis formation in children undergoing tubularized incised plate urethroplasty. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 83 children who underwent tubularized incised plate urethroplasty fo...

Background: Meatal stenosis is of common late complication of neonatal circumcision, albeit the appropriate post-operative care and conventional consumption of topical agents such as tetracycline. Nevertheless, its underlying etiology still remained vague. Lack of protective effects of foreskin and subsequent inflammation reaction due to chemical and mechanical irritation is thought to be the m...

Background: MS is one of the common urological problems that acquired and faced by urologists as well pediatric surgeons. Symptomatic boys are offered meatoplasty or meatotomy a procedure daycare under influence any anesthesia for treatment meatal stenosis. However, there scarcity literature on outcome these surgical procedures in Pakistan. Objective: To determine short-term Outcome urethral st...

Demographics At birth, the foreskin is usually nonretractile (physiological phimosis), with no apparent racial differences in incidence. Physiological phimosis regresses with age, as the foreskin widens and gradually advances over the glans penis. Prepucial adhesions are sometimes present during regression of physiological phimosis, but these also resolve spontaneously in most cases as epitheli...

Objectives To evaluate the presence of balanitis xerotica obliterans (BXO), clinically and pathologically, in the urethra of boys with failed previous hypospadias repair and where surgical management was planned. Patients and methods Between February 2010 and March 2015, boys with failed distal penile hypospadias repair who were planned for surgical management were evaluated for the presence ...

PURPOSE To investigate the success rate of Snodgrass method in combination with tunica vaginalis flap as the second layer for hypospadias repair. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a prospective study, 33 patients with penile hypospadias who were treated using a Tubularized Incised Plate Urethroplasty (Snodgrass method) and vascularized tunica vaginalis flap as a second layer, were evaluated. Wound inf...
