Abstract

There is no one good method for all hypospadias repairs. A technique must be adapted for each individual patient: therefore, the urologist ought to be proficient in performing a number of procedures in order to be prepared for all possible eventualities. And one-stage operations are preferable whenever they are judged to have a reasonable chance for success. Herein we report hypospadias repairs on 17 patients between August, 1985 and July, 1986. In 7cases of two stage operations such as Belt-Fugua and Thiersch-Duplay tube with glans channel, the success rate was 57%. In 10 cases of one stage operations such as Mathieu, King and Duckett, the success rate was 50%."
