In brief
Single-institution retrospective study of 31 patients with proximal hypospadias and chordee treated using a modified two-stage inner preputial flap technique. The modification involves removing subcutaneous tissue from the distal flap portion to function as a graft while covering the penile shaft, with intermediate-term follow-up outcomes reported.
Written by the GCMD Library team from the article.
Purpose
We present our modified technique of using the inner preputial flap to cover the penile shaft, while removing the subcutaneous tissue of the distal part of the flap to act similar to graft. Herein, we present our experience with modified two stage inner preputial flap for repair of proximal hypospadias with chordee.
Patients and Methods
The current study was a single-institution retrospective study between January 2016 and December 2020. Thirty-one patients with proximal hypospadias with chordee were included and underwent our modified technique. We excluded re-operative hypospadias and incomplete follow-up cases (
