CONGRESS OF THE ESPU

RESULTS

A total of 5,115 cases were identified, 388 types of medications and 90 pharmacological groups

were evaluated. Alpha-methyldopa and progesterone showed to be potentially risk factors: OR

2,27 (1,17-4,41; p=0,01) and OR 3,88 (1,96-7,70; p value 0,00003) respectively. Ferrous sulfate and

folic acid showed possible protective effect: OR 0.72 (0.60-0.87; p=0.0004) and OR 0.74 (0.56-0.96;

p value 0,02) respectively. Association with different types of hypospadias demonstrate potential

effects depending moment of exposure.

CONCLUSIONS

Potential preventive effects have been demonstrated in the past and this large-scale analysis

confirms a preventive effect of multivitamins in developing countries. Further studies will now focus

on cluster analysis, medication exposure and prevalence rates of hypospadias.

PURPOSE

To present the outcome of staged repair for proximal hypospadias with preputial graft on the bed of

vascularised split dartos flaps.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

73 boys with proximal hypospadias underwent staged repair over 11 years between March 2006 and

August 2016; 16 mid shaft, 36 proximal penile, 19 penoscrotal and 3 perineal. Chordee was moder-

ate in 24( 33%) and severe in 44 (61%) requiring nesbitts procedure. 7 boys(9.5%) received Local

DHT gel prior to first stage. All of them had preputial graft at the first stage with split vascularised

dartos flaps placed on lateral aspects of the bed. Tubularisation of neourethra was done 6-8 months

later when the graft was supple.The mean age at first stage was 29 months (14-100) and 43 months

at 2

nd

stage(21-116).

RESULTS

Median length of follow up was 23 months post completion of staged repair (2-95 months). We had

a 100% graft take following first stage with no revision of graft. 57 boys had successful repair with

planned two stages. 16 boys had complications (21%). 9 boys developed fistulas (12%). 4 fistulas

were late complications, one developing 26 months after the second stage, 2 developing 3 years

after the second stage and one developing 7 years post second stage. The other 5 developed

between 5 and 19 months after the second stage. 

Of the 9 fistulas, 7 succesfully repaired (5 closure of fistula; 2 redourethroplasty). One boy has had

two failed attempts at closure. Another boy is awaiting fistula closure.

4 boys had late presenting meatal stenosis;2 had meatoplasty; 2 awaiting correction. One boy had

a meatal skin tag which was excised and another had penile torsion which was corrected. One boy

had residual overhanging foreskin causing spraying, which was repaired.

CONCLUSIONS

Staged repair with preputial graft over dartos flaps for proximal hypospadias is reliable technique

with minimum morbidity and no graft loss.
