Invited commentary on Herzberg et al: Operative techniques and long-term outcomes of hypospadias repair in the absence of preputial skin after neonatal circumcision

The repair of hypospadias has evolved over time with multiple available techniques for reconstruction. Most “hypospadologists” utilize one or more of the available techniques for reconstruction, at times combining features of multiple techniques in their daily practice. Refinements in repair have, over time, lead to a significant reduction in complications and excellent long-term functional and cosmetic outcomes.
