Glans dehiscence after severe hypospadias repair. Is it a real complication? Clues from a study in post-pubertal patients

This retrospective study of 34 post-pubertal patients found glans dehiscence occurred in 41% after proximal hypospadias repair, with poor agreement between patient and surgeon assessment. Despite its frequency, glans dehiscence showed no impact on cosmetic or functional outcomes, suggesting surgical correction should be reserved for patient-requested cases rather than routine intervention.
