Horseshoe kidney and associated anomalies: Single institutional review of 20 cases.

The objective of the study is to study various anomalies associated with HSKs and to assess the need for surgical intervention in patients with these anomalies.

Long term follow up of proximal hypospadias repair-urethral stricture should be excluded in adults who present with epididymo-orchitis.

Objective: Epididymo-orchitis (EO) is a well-known complication of urinary tract infections (UTI) in children. This is commonly seen in children who had hypospadias repair or in those who had surgery for anorectal malformation especially when it results in urethral stricture. However EO occurring as a complication of urethral stricture in adults operated for hypospadias in childhood is not well documented in the literature.
