The success of various types of operations for primary hypospadias was assessed taking the location of meatus and the degree of chordee as the basis. Totally 258 patients with primary hypospadias were operated: 94 by meatal and urethral advencement, 110 by perimeatal flap and tube repair and 54 by preputial flap. The rates of success in cases with meatal advencement, perimeatal flap and preputial flap were found as 88%, 81% and 66% respectively. The success of treatment in hypospadias cases is closely related to the age of the patient, the experience of the surgeon and the choice of an appropriate method. However, the presence of chordee and the proximally located meatus are among the leading factors that influence the rate of success.

Tunica vaginalis or dartos as second layer coverage for distal and mid-shaft penile hypospadias, quo vadis?
World J Urol
January 2025
Urology Department, Urology and Nephrology Center, Mansoura University, Mansoura, Egypt.
Purpose: To compare between the dartos and tunica vaginalis flaps as covering layers in denovo distal or mid-shaft penile hypospadias underwent tubularized incised plate (TIP) repair.
Methods: This is a single-center, randomized trial was for denovo distal or mid-shaft penile hypospadias. Children with history of orchiectomy, orchiopexy and inguinal hernia repair were excluded.
Open-ended urethral catheters reduce catheter obstruction after hypospadias repair.
Front Pediatr
December 2024
Department of Pediatric Surgery, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China.
Backgrounds: Urethral catheter obstruction is a notable issue that pediatric patients with hypospadias may encounter in the early postoperative period. This retrospective study aims to assess the efficacy of open-ended urethral catheters with 2 side holes in mitigating catheter obstruction in pediatric patients following hypospadias repair.
Materials And Methods: The clinical data of pediatric patients who underwent hypospadias repair surgery from January 2021 to October 2023 were retrospectively collected.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigates adverse events associated with topiramate using data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System, aiming to improve its safe clinical use.
- The analysis reviewed 12,168 reports and identified 244 positive signals of adverse reactions, with 21 of these being serious and not listed on the drug label.
- Key serious signals included conditions like hypospadias, spina bifida, and renal dysfunction, highlighting the necessity for ongoing vigilance in monitoring topiramate's safety.

Indian J Dermatol
October 2024
Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery and Hypospadias and VVFs Clinic, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences (PGIMS), University of Health Sciences, Rohtak (UHSR), Haryana, India.
Purpose And Background: To create awareness among dermatosurgeons about the versatility of keystone flaps in re-surfacing post-excisional small, medium and large skin defects.
Aims And Objectives: Single-staged tension-free re-surfacing of various sized skin defects using keystone flap and to have least donor site morbidity, primary healing and maximum functional outcome.
Material And Methods: This retrospective study was conducted, between October 2021 - January 2023 in Department of Plastic Surgery, PGIMS Rohtak, on 15 males and 1 female aged between 18 - 65 years.
Additive outcome of platelet rich fibrin neourethral coverage of tubularized incised plate in primary distal hypospadias repair.
BMC Urol
December 2024
Department of Urology, Faculty of Medicine, Suez Canal University, Ismailia, 41522, Egypt.
Background: Healing complications are a significant concern after hypospadias repair, often attributed to deficient growth factors and reduced healing potential of hypospadiac tissue. Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF), a new generation of platelet concentrates rich in growth factors, has been successfully applied to provide a mechanical barrier and promote healing in different surgical fields. The objective of this study was to assess the role of a PRF membrane covering the neourethra, in addition to a Dartos flap, optimizing the outcomes of primary distal hypospadias repair.
