Transverse mucosal preputial flap for repair of severe hypospadias and isolated chordee without hypospadias: A 350-case experience

Abstract 

Three hundred patients with hypospadias and 50 patients with isolated chordee without hypospadias were operated on and followed by the same surgeon. A very low postoperative urethrocutaneous fistula rate (4.8%) was related to complete cutaneous coverage of the neourethra. The incidence of stenosis, noted in 8% of the cases, has progressively decreased with improvement of technical details and with growing experience. A total of 75% of the patients were corrected with a single operative procedure. Good disponibility of penile skin rendered a second intervention always easy. (J Pediatr Surg 1993 Mar;28(3):435-8)
