Summary

This study looked at a single surgery to correct hypospadias in children who had already had one repair. Hypospadias is a birth defect where the opening of the urethra is not at the tip of the penis. The surgery used a technique called tubularized incised plate urethroplasty. The study included 15 children and measured how often the repair was successful and what complications occurred, such as fistulas or narrowing. The goal was to see if this single-stage approach is a good option for repeat repairs.

We will conduct a retrospective review of 15 pediatric cases who presented or referred with complications requiring reoperation after primary hypospadias repair, including urethrocutaneous fistula, meatal stenosis, or poor urinary stream. This study will be conducted at Tanta university hospitals from January 2021 to december 2025. The data will be collected from 1st January 2026 to 1st February 2026.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Both sexes. * Children with recurrent or residual hypospadias in whom the urethral plate is deemed suitable for reuse, defined as a plate width of at least 8-9 mm with acceptable vascularity and without severe fibrosis. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with severely scared or fibrotic urethral plates are not suitable for tubularization. * Absent or destroyed urethral plates following previous failed hypospadias repairs. * Patients require staged urethral reconstruction rather than a single-stage procedure. * Presence of poor urethral plate vascularity or ischemic tissue. * Extensive penile scarring or fibrosis resulting from multiple previous surgical attempts. * Severe penile curvature requiring excision of the urethral plate. * Inability to achieve adequate, well-vascularized tissue coverage over the neourethra.
