Abstract

In 1992 a retrospective review was conducted of 190 patients evaluated and treated for complications of hypospadias surgery during 1979 through 1990 at the Devine Center for Genitourinary Reconstructive Surgery of Sentara Norfolk General Hospital and Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters. We could not contact 13 patients and 8 are awaiting a second stage procedure. Of the 177 patients 167 (94.35%) have had a successful outcome, defined as a controllable urinary stream, functional erection and an acceptable cosmetic appearance, and 2 (1.13%) are considered failures. Details of presenting problems, surgical techniques and recent modifications of these procedures are presented.
