          Abstract

          Estudio retrospectivo de 124 pacientes (edad media: 3,8 años) con hipospadias peneano medio: 48,3% (60 niños), peneano distal: 45,9% (57) y coronal 5,6% (7), de los cuales el 25,8% (16) presentaban incurvación ventral y el 4,8% (6) procedían del fracaso de otra técnica. Todos ellos intervenidos según técnica de Snodgrass, retirando la sonda entre el 6 y 7º día en la mayoría. La tasa global de complicaciones fue del 12%: 9 fístulas (7,2%) y 6 estenosis de meato (4,8%). El resultado estético fue satisfactorio en todos los casos, quedando incluso el glande cubierto por prepucio el 57,3%.

          Retrospective study of 124 patients (average age: 3.8 years) with midpenile hypospadias: 48,3% (60 children), distal penile: 45,9% (57) and coronal 5,6% (7), of which the 25.8% (16) presented ventral curvature and the 4,8% (6) resulting from the complication of another previous technique. All of them were operated according to Snodgrass' technique, removing the catheter between the 6th and 7th day in most of them. The global rate of complications was of 12%: 9 fistulae (7,2%) and 6 meatal stenosis (4,8%). Aesthetic result was satisfactory in all cases, getting glans covered by foreskin in 57,3%.

          Tubularized incised plate urethroplasty: expanded use in primary and repeat surgery for hypospadias.

          We evaluated the impact of tubularized incised plate urethroplasty on primary and repeat hypospadias repair. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of all boys who underwent hypospadias repair at our institution during a recent 3-year period. The level of the hypospadias defect, technique of repair, primary repair versus reoperation, age at surgery and complications were recorded. A total of 520 hypospadias repairs were done from May 1996 through June 1999. We began to perform tubularized incised plate urethroplasty in November 1996. During the ensuing consecutive 32 months 181 primary and 25 repeat hypospadias repairs were done using this technique. Mean patient age at surgery was 22 months (range 3 months to 30 years). During the 6 months immediately before we began to use this method the Mathieu flip-flap procedure was the most commonly performed technique, accounting for 38% of all hypospadias repairs. In contrast, during the last 6 months reviewed tubularized incised plate urethroplasty accounted for 63% of all repairs, including 41 of 65 primary operations (63%) and 4 of 6 reoperations (67%), while no Mathieu procedures were performed. Postoperative followup was 6 to 38 months for tubularized incised plate repair. Overall meatal stenosis and a urethrocutaneous fistula developed in 1 and 14 boys, respectively (7% complication rate). Tubularized incised plate urethroplasty has become the preferred technique of primary and repeat hypospadias repair at our institution. The technique has few complications as well as proved success and versatility that continues to expand its applicability and popularity.

            Tubularized incised plate (TIP) hypospadias repair.

            In the past 6 years TIP urethroplasty has become a preferred technique for distal hypospadias repair, and has also been used for proximal lesions and reoperations. In this article technical aspects of the procedure are described and published outcomes reviewed. TIP hypospadias repair has gained widespread acceptance because of its versatility, low complication rate and reliable creation of a vertically-oriented meatus.

              Further experience with the tubularized-incised urethral plate technique for hypospadias repair.

              To report further experience of hypospadias repair using the tubularized-incised urethral plate (TIP) technique and to evaluate the role of postoperative neourethral dilatation as a method of preventing complications. The study included 64 patients (aged 2-18 years) who underwent TIP repair of hypospadias; 47 required a primary and 17 a secondary repair. After removing the stent they were randomized into two groups; group 1 (38 patients) underwent regular neourethral dilatation for 12 weeks and group 2 (26 patients) did not. Patients were followed for a mean (range) of 28 (6-52) months. The functional and cosmetic results were excellent in all patients in group 1, except for slight meatal regression in one patient (3%). In group 2, 17 patients had excellent results; eight (31%) were re-operated upon to correct complications, six developed a fistula (four of which were associated with meatal stenosis) and two developed a neourethral stricture. TIP urethroplasty is a versatile technique that provides an excellent functional and cosmetic outcome. Regular urethral calibration after repair should be considered as an integral part of the technique, to prevent neourethral and/or meatal stenosis with subsequent fistula formation.
