ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the treatment of hypospadias with hydrocele.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Nine patients with hypospadias complicated by hydrocele underwent urethroplasty with tunica vaginalis flap.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Satisfactory results were achieved in 7 cases, all with a normal anatomic position of urethral meatus, perfect urination and no infection. Local infection and meatal stricture occurred in 1 case, which was restored to normal by urethral sounding. Scrotal urinary fistula developed in another.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>With minimum surgical trauma, conveniently available material and fast tissue repair, urethroplasty with tunica vaginalis flap is a desirable method for the treatment of hypospadias with hydrocele.</p>
