Preputial Graft Urethroplasty in Primary Repair of Hypospadias

NCT05660564 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Introduction: Hypospadias repair is debated. There has been no perfect procedure until this moment. A graft is sometimes needed to fundamentally strengthen the narrow urethral plate.

Patients and methods: The study included a child who had primary distal or mid-penile hypospadias at the age of 6 months or more, a urethral plate less than 8 mm in a non-circumcised penis, and was operated on using the Snodgraft technique.

PROCEDURE

DIGU Dorsal inlay preputial graft urethroplasty

Using a scalpel, a midline incision is made from the meatus to the end of the plate . The edge of the distal glans should not be incised to avoid meatal stenosis. The depth of this relaxing incision depends on the plate's width and depth, but in all cases, it extends down to the corpora cavernosa. Degloving of the penile skin to the penoscrotal junction If a minimal chord is present, it should be corrected. From the inner prepuce, a free graft was measured, harvested, defatted, and stitched to the UP. With interrupted 6/0 polyglactin sutures running from the old meatus to the tip of the glans, the graft was secured to the medial edges of the incised plate. Depending on the location of the meatus, the characteristics of the UP, and the depth of the midline incision, the graft width and length varied in each case.
