Home removal of Firlit Kluge stents and hypospadias dressing after distal hypospadias repair in day surgical unit: A Single Centre Experience

Abstract

In this study, we present our single-centre experience using the Firlit Kluge (FK) stent with Duoderm and Tegaderm dressings removed at home on day 6 post-procedure for patients with distal hypospadias. Caregivers were provided with an information leaflet containing instructions for analgesia. This approach eliminates the need for hospital readmission for stent and dressing removal, streamlining the postoperative process for both patients and caregivers, while also reducing the workload of nursing staff.
