Prevalence, Incidence, and Age at Diagnosis of Boys With Hypospadias: A Nationwide Population-Based Epidemiological Study.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic prevalence, incidence, diagnostic age, and surgical volume of hypospadias in Denmark.

Materials And Methods: Males with a hypospadias diagnosis in the Danish National Patient Registry (n = 10,276) were identified (1977-2019). A diagnostic algorithm, validated by medical file review (n = 1710), confirmed diagnoses and severity (distal/proximal).

Genotype-Phenotype Correlation and Feminizing Surgery in Danish Children with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.

Introduction: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is characterized by a broad spectrum of symptoms. This study aimed to describe genotype-phenotype correlations, clinical manifestations at diagnosis, and the frequency of feminizing surgery in childhood.

Methods: A nationwide retrospective cohort study of patients diagnosed with CAH, at the age of ≤18 years, between 1943 and 2018.

Paediatric urology is a subspeciality of urology, with close links to paediatric surgery. This review concludes that a holistic life-long approach to management in highly specialised treatment centres is essential for many of the rare congenital conditions - in Denmark, paediatric urology is centralised to two institutions: Rigshospitalet in Copenhagen and Aarhus University Hospital in Aarhus. Other than performing basic urology in paediatric patients, both centres specialise in complex and rare urological conditions and thus have been accredited by the European Reference Network on rare diseases through the eUrogen collaboration.

Referral patterns, clinical features and management of uncorrected hypospadias in a series of adult men.

Background: Hypospadias surgery undertaken in early life often continues to impose challenges as patients age. Little is known about the natural history of uncorrected hypospadias persisting into adulthood.

Objective: To describe presenting symptoms and management strategies in men with uncorrected hypospadias referred to our national tertiary transitional clinic for congenital urological conditions.
