Hypospadias is a common congenital anomaly of the penis in which the urethra opens proximal to its normal position at the tip of the glans and the overall incidence of hypospadias is between 0.3% and 0.6%. Distal penile hypospadias is the commonest amongst all hypospadias cases. One stage urethroplasty was performed among 64 cases using Mathieu-Mullen's procedure or Snodgrass Belman procedure. Of these 64 cases, in 29 cases the Mathieu-Mullen's procedure was followed and in the rest 35 cases of distal penile hypospadias the Snodgrass Belman procedure was employed. These two procedures were retrospectively compared in terms of operating time, operative blood loss, cosmetic result, postoperative fistula rate, duration of operation.

Outcome of Double Layer UrethroplastyWithout Flap in Mid and Distal Penile Hypospadias.

Mymensingh Med J

Dr Md Abdullah Al Mahmud, Assistant Professor, Pediatric Surgery, Mymensingh Medical College (MMC), Mymensingh, Bangladesh; E-mail:

Hypospadias is the absence of external urethral meatus in the tip of the glans but present in the ventral surface of the penis. Hypospadias surgery is challenging and changing. Many modifications have been done to reduce the complications.

Objective: To evaluate the surgical methods for treating distal urethral stricture.

Methods: The clinical data of 80 patients with distal urethral stricture in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Captial Medical University between January 2018 and December 2022 were retrospectively collected. Including male genital lichen sclerosus (MGLS) 33 cases, iatrogenic injury 25 cases, postoperative hypospadias 12 cases, and other causes such as trauma 10 cases.

Introduction: Urethrocutaneous fistula (UCF) is the most common complication after hypospadias repair, with an variable incidence of 2-35%, depending on defect type. The interposition of tissue between the neourethra and the skin or glans is considered an important factor to reduce the risk of UCF. Literature has focused on the comparison of different types of second layers, but there is still no consensus regarding the best tissue to adopt.

Robotic-Assisted Microsurgery in Gender-Affirming Phalloplasty.

Ann Plast Surg

January 2025

Centre for Reproductive Medicine and Andrology, Department of Clinical and Surgical Andrology, University Hospital Muenster, Muenster, Germany.

Genital gender-affirming masculinization surgeries require handling of small vessels and nerves handling in deep planes. Since the introduction of the Symani Surgical System for robotic-assisted microsurgery in clinical practice, its value in handling small and deep vessels via additional distal motion axes, motion scaling, and tremor elimination has been demonstrated. We combined the Symani with the robotic exoscope RoboticScope to achieve maximum flexibility and ergonomics for the microsurgeon.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the penile fibrovascular assembly to determine if it functions as an independent vascular compartment within the human body, addressing a gap in cardiovascular research.
  • Researchers examined 23 male cadavers and analyzed extensive medical imaging and hemodynamic data to gain insight into the structure and function of the penile vasculature.
  • Results indicate that the human penis contains a unique bi-layered fibrovascular assembly with atypical vascular patterns, challenging previous assumptions about penile venous drainage.
