Abstract
-
Byars approach for the repair of hypospadias is simple, sound and has reported the lowest incidence of fistula formation. This procedure has been used in the Department of Urology, College of Medicine, Kyung-pook National University during the last 3 years. During the period, a clinical observation was made on 7 hypospadias patients who had received the 2 stage operation(resection of chordee and uerthroplasty) using Byars procedure. Infection of surgical wound was the most frequent complication, however, fistula formations did not occur in any case. The urinary stream and the states of erection were good in all cases.
