Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7

Abstract

Hypospadias is the most common congenital anomaly of penis [1]. Surgical correction of proximal hypospadias is a technically challenging. Such surgeries are associated with maximum number of failures and results in cripples. Reoperation of failed childhood hypospadias repair is seriously bothersome and is surgeon’s nightmares because of lack of abundant penile and prepuce skin for urethroplasty and penile shaft coverage. Among the various complications of childhood hypospadias repair, partial disruption with urethrocutaneous fistula &complete disruption with pan urethral strictures and ueretro cutaneous fistula are most frustrating problem for urologists. But there is no best single technique to repair.
