Summary

This study tested two types of nerve blocks to control pain after hypospadias repair in 30 boys aged 1-8. One block was given near the tailbone (caudal) and the other near the penis (dorsal penile). The caudal block worked better for early pain and reduced the need for extra pain medicine, but it delayed when the children could start walking. Both methods were safe and effective.
