MP47-08 LESSONS FROM ADULTS WITH UNTREATED DISTAL HYPOSPADIAS: FUNCTIONAL AND AESTHETIC CONCERNS

Background: Hypospadias is a common congenital anomaly in which the anterior urethra is incompletely developed and does not extend to the tip of the glans penis. The present study was aimed to study the clinical prole of hypospadias. Settings and Design:This was a prospective, observational study. Methods: This prospective study was conducted at Department of General Surgery, LLR & Associated Hospitals, GSVM Medical College, Kanpur, India, from January 2019 to October 2020, on 72 patients of hypospadias, after taking clearance from the Institutional Ethical Committee, and taking proper informed consent for participation. Data collected for each patient included age, sex, demography, symptoms with duration, and relevant past and treatment history. Results: The most common age of presentation was between 1-5years of age (48.61%, n=35). Distal hypospadias (DH) was the most common site. (47.22%, n=34). 4.16% (n=3) patients presented with urethrocutaneous stula. Chordee was more commonly seen in patients with mid & proximal penile hypospadias (64.70%, n=33). In the present study, 4.1% (n=3) had associated undescended testis, 4.1% (n=3) had an associated bid scrotum and 1.3% (n=1) had an associated congenital hernia. Conclusions: Most cases of hypospadias present before 10 years of age. Distal hypospadias is the most common type. Chordee is associated most commonly with proximal penile and mid penile hypospadias. It may also be associated with other congenital anomalies like, undescended testis, bid scrotum or congenital hernias

Reconstructive Techniques

Abstract Background Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital anomalies affecting males worldwide, with distal variants representing up to 70% of all cases. Several surgical techniques are adopted for distal hypospadias repair. However, there is still much controversy about the ideal technique. Objectives The aim of this study is to compare between the most popular reconstructive techniques for distal penile hypospadias repair. Highlighting their effectiveness, in term of success rate as well as the risk of postoperative complications. Methods For this systematic review, PubMed/Medline and ScinceDirect online databases were searched using the keywords ‘distal hypospadias, complications and outcome’. Inclusion criteria were primary repairs; distal hypospadias; pediatric case series and standard techniques. Abstracts of articles identified were reviewed, and then relevant articles were retrieved in full. Papers were only included if data on at least one of the main outcome measures was obtainable, which are postoperative fistula, meatal stenosis and glanular dehiscence. Data were pooled using CMA software, effect sizes were reported as event rates with 95% confidence intervals (CI) been calculated for each outcome. Results A total of 25 studies, which included 4572 patients, met the inclusion criteria. The tubularised incised plate (TIP) was the most commonly adopted procedure followed by the peri-meatal flap (Mathieu). Few studies reported data for other techniques like onlay flap, Thiersch-Duplay, meatal advancement and MAGPI procedures, in addition to urethral mobilization technique. The overall incidence of main complications was 10.5% with comparable results among different techniques. The results are in favor of urethral mobilization and TIP procedures over Mathieu regarding the incidence of both meatal stenosis and post-operative fistula. Overall, the quality of the included studies was determined to be satisfactory. Conclusion Compared with Mathieu technique, urethral mobilization and the TIP procedure for distal penile hypospadias (DPH) reconstruction were associated with a lower risk of overall complications specifically postoperative fistula and meatal stenosis.
