AI Article Synopsis
- The review focuses on hypospadias-related complications in adult patients, particularly analyzing studies on stricture disease, erectile function, fertility, and psychosexual outcomes from childhood repairs.
- It highlights the challenges reconstructive urologists face due to prior surgeries and tissue deficiencies, impacting the management of these complications.
- The article emphasizes the need for more longitudinal studies to enhance understanding and care for adults who have undergone hypospadias repair.
Article Abstract
Purpose Of Review: This review article will examine the current literature on hypospadias-related complications in adult patients.
Recent Findings: In this article, we will review the most recent studies evaluating hypospadias-related stricture disease, erectile function, fertility, and psychosexual outcomes in adult men with history of hypospadias repair in childhood. Managing hypospadias-related complications in adult patients is challenging to reconstructive urologists due to the compounded complexity of innate tissue deficiency and history of prior surgical repairs. In this review, we explore overall functional outcomes of adults with history of hypospadias repair as well as repair strategies of hypospadias-related urethral stricture disease. We will review erectile function, fertility and psychosexual outcomes as well as potential complications, which often do not surface until late adolescence and adulthood. Although it is challenging to characterize and quantify hypospadias-related complications, further longitudinal study is needed to better care for this complex patient population.

Redo-urethroplasty for the management of recurrent urethral strictures in males: a systematic review.
World J Urol
September 2019
MRC Centre for Transplantation, Guy's Hospital, King's College London, London, UK.
Purpose: Redo-urethroplasty is a challenge for any genitourethral surgeon, with a number of techniques previously described. This systematic review aims to identify the surgical techniques described in the literature and evaluate the evidence for their effectiveness in managing recurrent urethral strictures.
Materials And Methods: A systematic review of the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases from 1945 to July 2018 was performed and the urethroplasty procedures were classified according to the site and surgical technique.
Single penile incision for combined hypospadias and inguinal surgery: A comparative study.

Introduction: We sought to compare the surgical outcomes of hypospadias repair with correction of inguinal pathology using a single penile incision vs. conventional approach using two incisions.
Methods: This is a retrospective study that reviewed all patients who underwent concurrent surgical repair for both hypospadias and inguinal pathologies between January 2003 and November 2015.
Better Defining the Spectrum of Adult Hypospadias: Examining the Effect of Childhood Surgery on Adult Presentation.
Urology
January 2017
Division of Urology, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada. Electronic address:
Objective: To describe the spectrum of adult presentations with hypospadias-related complications and examine the effect of childhood surgical repair on these adult presentations.
Methods: A retrospective chart review over a 10-year period, from August 2004 to December 2014, demonstrated 93 adult patients who presented to a reconstructive urologist with complications related to hypospadias. Patients were divided into 2 groups: those with no prior hypospadias surgery (Group 1, N = 19) and those who underwent surgical correction as a child (Group 2, N = 74).
