Value of staged repair for hypospadias / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the value and strategy of staged repair in hypospadias surgery.Methods One hundred and sixty-three cases of severe proximal and complex hypospadias were retrospectively analyzed.According to the operation process,all the cases were divided into 2 groups.Staged repair groupthere were 46 cases in all,included 31 cases of severe proximal hypospadias and 15 cases cases of complex hypospadias,the diorthosis for penis curvature and urethral reconstruction were completed by staged.One-stage repair groupthere were 117 cases as control group,included 108 cases of severe proximal hypospadias and 9 cases of complex hypospadias,their diorthosis for penis curvature and urethral reconstruction were completed in single stage.Results The adverse factors such as a serious deformity in penis or limited local tissue were more common in staged repair group,and the conditions of repair were worse than one-stage repair group.In severe proximal hypospadias,the incidence of penis curvature in staged repair group was obvious lower than one-stage repair group (P ＜ 0.05),within the period of follow up,which only 1 case (3.2％) showed a slight penis curvature.However,there were 23 cases (21.3％) with penis curvature in one-stage repair group,in which 7 cases showed up penis torsion,20 cases with a bowstring shape of breviate urethra in penile ventral,and 19 cases(17.6％) needed reoperation.Compared of 2 groups,the incidences of urinary fistula,urethral stricture and urethral diverticulum showed no difference in statistics (all P ＞ 0.05).In complex hypospadias,the incidence of urinary fistula in staged repair group was significantly lower than one-stage repair group,and then the rate of urinary fistula was 20.0％ vs 66.7％ (P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of penis curvature,urethral stricture and urethral diverticulum showed no difference in statistics (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Staged repair is relatively simple and effective,can be used in the treatment of severe proximal or complex hypospadias,especially in the cases with a worse condition.The mode of operation should be chosen not only according to the penial state and tissue conditions,but also combined with the technology and experience of the surgeon,and avoid the forced of one-staged repair for hypospadias.
