Objective: To determine the clinical impact of preventive nursing on children with hypospadias and the intervention effect on postoperative complications.

Study Design: Comparative study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Urology Surgery, Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University Baoding Hospital, Hebei, China, from August 2019 to July 2021.

Methodology: Children with hypospadias who received elective surgery were randomly divided into two groups of forty cases each. The control group received traditional specialised nursing care during the perioperative period, the study group administered preventive care on the control basis. The postoperative rehabilitation, VAS, anxiety and depression score, postoperative complications, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.

Results: The time of first bowel movement, extubation, and hospitalisation in the study group were significantly shorter than in the control group, with statistically significant value (p<0.001). After intervention, the SAS and SDS in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). The incidence of complications in the study group was 7.50%, lower than the 25% of control group (p = 0.034). The postoperative VAS scores of the study group were significantly lower than those of control group at 6 and 24 hours (p<0.05). Besides, nursing satisfaction in the study group was 97.50%, higher than the 82.50% of the control group (p = 0.025).

Conclusion: Preventive nursing had a reliable nursing effect on children undergoing hypospadias surgery, which can reduce postoperative complications, alleviate postoperative pain, improve postoperative anxiety and depression, enhance nursing experience, and promote postoperative recovery.

Key Words: Preventive care, Hypospadias in male children, Urethroplasty, Complication, Clinical effect.

Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is a low-molecular-weight phthalate commonly found in personal care products, such as perfumes, aftershaves, and nail care items, as well as in children's toys, pharmaceuticals, and food products. It is used to improve flexibility, make polymer products soft and malleable, and as solvents and stabilizers in personal care products. Pregnancy represents a critical period during which both the mother and the developing embryo can be significantly impacted by exposure to endocrine disruptors.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to create an age-related penile length nomogram for Indian boys aged 1-14 to assess normal development and detect abnormalities like hypospadias.
  • It involved 1276 volunteers, using generalized additive models to analyze the relationship between age and stretched penile length (SPL).
  • Results showed that SPL increases with age in a non-linear manner, with significant growth spurts at ages 2-4 and 10-14, providing a valuable reference for parents and doctors in managing pediatric penile health.*

Objectives: Maternal exposure to environmental endocrine disruptors, such as phthalates, during pregnancy is a significant risk factor for the development of hypospadias. By consolidating existing research on the mechanisms by which phthalates induce hypospadias in rodent models, this systematic review aims to organize and analyze the discovered mechanisms and their potential connections.

Methods: The study involved all articles that explored the mechanisms of phthalate-induced hypospadias using rodent models.

Background: In proximal hypospadias, ventral curvature is invariable and most have penoscrotal transposition, and we observed that the base of the penis (BOP) was located on the inferior aspect of the pubic bones in those, in contrast to the location of the BOP at the anterior end in normal penises. We also observed an unfused bulbospongiosus muscle (BSM) at surgery in those. The aim was to assess the impact of repairing the unfused BSM or transection and straightening of the urethral plate at the first operation on the low BOP.

Purpose: Hypospadias, one of the congenital anomalies commonly associated with some degrees of ventral penile curvature that may arise from malformation of dartos fascia, the chordee. Our study aims to determine the correlation between the histopathology properties of dartos fascia and the severity of ventral penile curvature in hypospadias.

Materials And Methods: One hundred hypospadias patients with various degrees of ventral penile curvature were included in this cross-sectional analytical study from 2020 to 2022.
