ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the clinical effects of tubularized incised plate urethroplasty for hypospadias.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-five children aged 1 to 12 years with hypospadias were included in this study, 5 cases of them were glans type, 27 cases penis type, and 3 cases penoscrotal type. Hypospadias was treated by one-stage tubularized incised plate urethroplasty. Incised plate in the middle line loosened the urethral plate, and the microsurgery technique was applied during the suture.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The appearance and function of the new urinary meatus was satisfactory. Thirty cases were successfully corrected with no urethral fistula and stricture. Two cases with urethral fistula and 3 cases with urinary meatus stricture were corrected by re-operation. Follow-up investigations were carried out in 32 patients.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The urethral plate, close to normal urethral tissues, has an abundant blood supply and satisfactory elasticity. Tubularized incised plate urethroplasty is an ideal method for stage-one correction of hypospadias.</p>
