No urethral complications were found to have occurred in any of the 30 patients. No surgeries were required, and no incidents of false passages, meatitis or meatal stenosis were detected. Two patients experienced epidydimitis. In four patients who had signs of strictures at the outset of the study from previous use of an indwelling catheter, these signs subsided once CIC using LoFric was initia...

Penile urethral stones are a rare occurrence resulting from a number of causes including migration of stones within the urinary tract, urethral strictures, meatal stenosis, and obstructing tumours such as adenomatous metaplasia of the uroepithelium, hypospadias, urethral diverticulum, and very rarely primary fossa navicularis calculi. We report the case of a 54-year-old male presenting with pen...

numerous methods for repair of hypospadias have been introduced. the technique of tubularized incised plate urethroplasty has gained widespread acceptance. in the classical method of tubularized incised plate urethroplasty, to divert urine flow and preventing urethral stenosis, a stent was used, but its necessity is questionable for some surgeons. in this paper we systematically compared the re...

Lower airway infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with cystic fibrosis. It is currently unknown if the infection of the upper airway can cause exacerbation of lower respiratory tract infection. This study aimed to determine the microbiological profile of the anterior paranasal sinuses outflow tract (middle meatus) of cystic fibrosis outpatients. The microbiological ...

OBJECTIVE To determine indications for circumcision revision and to identify the specialty of the person who performed unsatisfactory primary circumcision. MATERIALS AND METHODS The authors reviewed medical records of 52 cases that underwent circumcision revision over a 6-year period (1998 to 2004). Sleeve surgical technique was used for revision in patients with redundant foreskin or conceal...

Introduction: Hypospadias is a common congenital malformation in boys. One of the common surgical techniques for correction of hypospadias is (Tubularized Incised Plate urethraplasty=TIP). Meatal stenosis and fistula formation are known post-operative complications. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the effect of early urethral dilatation in prevention of post operative complications. Me...

Objective. Present study was undertaken to compare the results of two single stage hypospadias repairs, namely, Tubularized Incised Plate (TIP) repair and Mathieu's repair. Methods. The study included 100 patients of distal penile hypospadias, from January, 2008 to January, 2013. After a detailed history, local examination was performed with reference to the site of meatus, shape of glans, and ...

Background: Being a common congenital urogenital disorder, hypospadias is mostly treated by Snodgrass urethroplasty; urethrocutaneous fistula the most frequent complication. Objective: To assess outcomes of Urethroplasty when Buck’s (external spermatic) fascia was used with Dartos to interpose between neourethra and skin compare results only applied. Study Design: Prospective comparative study ...

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...
