Summary

This study tests whether rinsing the urethral stent with salt water after hypospadias surgery can prevent wound infections in teenage boys. About 150 adolescents will be randomly assigned to get either the rinse plus standard drainage or drainage alone. The goal is to see if this simple step lowers complication rates and improves recovery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
urethral stent tube irrigation with saline
What this could lead to
If it works, this simple rinse could lower infection rates after hypospadias repair, making recovery smoother for teens.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with no blinding, so results may not be definitive. The rinse itself could cause irritation or discomfort.
