Outcomes of Patients with Glanular Hypospadias or Dorsal Hood Deformity with Mild Chordee Ttreated by Modified Firlit's Technique.

Purpose: To assess the success and complication rates of glanular hypospadias or dorsal hood deformity surgery,using a modified Firlit's technique without glanuloplasty.

Materials And Methods: Between May 2013 and December 2015, 41 patients with glanular hypospadias or dorsalhood deformity without hypospadias and mild ventral chordee underwent surgery. Thirty-eight who completedthe 1 week and 6-month follow-up were retrospectively evaluated.

Flowmetry/ pelvic floor electromyographic findings in patients with detrusor overactivity.

Unlabelled: To evaluate different flowmetry/EMG patterns in patients with proven detrusor overactivity (DO) and compare them with that of a group of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) but without DO.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the records of 100 patients with frequent urinary tract infection or any kind of storage or voiding symptoms that had undergone urodynamic testing: 50 cases with proven DO on cystometry who had a good quality flowmetry/EMG and 50 patients without DO. EMG lag time (the time distance between pelvic floor EMG inactivation and the start of urine flow) and different flow curve pattern were recorded and compared.
