Retrospective analysis of results of the most frequently used methods of urethroplasty: urethroplasty using tubularized dissected urethral area (TIP), urethroplasty using tubularized dissected urethral area with inset the free flap of the foreskin (GTIP) and Mathieu surgery in patients with coronary, distal and middle hypospadias (in primary and recurrent surgery), was performed. From 2005 to 2010, 300 patients aged 7 months to 19 years underwent the surgery. There were no early postoperative complications in any patient, with the exception of early accidental removal of the catheter in 4 patients. Long-term results of one-stage correction of hypospadias were followed-up during period of 6 months to 4 years. Late complications included urethral fistula and stenosis. Analysis of the results of operations led to the conclusion that the TIP urethroplasty with Snodgrass modification can be performed as either primary or recurrent surgery in case of normal size of balanus and urethral area. However, in case of changes in the urethral area, scarring and small sizes of balanus, appropriate surgery is Mathieu operation.
