PURPOSE

The position of the meatus and of the division of the corpus spongiosum (DCS) are considered

predictive factors for the outcome of hypospadias surgery. We determine the odds of non-modifiable

factors registered in the Dutch Hypospadias Study database (DHyS) for postoperative complications.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The DHyS contains prospective data of 1233 evaluable patients. The relation between pre- and

dysmaturity, meatal position, position of DCS, preoperative penile length, penile curvature (more

than 30 degrees after deglovement) and complications 6 months after first correction were investi-

gated with logistic regression. Categorical variables were coded from less to more severe.

RESULTS

46(5.4 %) children were born pre- and/or dysmaturely: median age at birth gestational week

35(IQR 32–37), birth weight 1862grams(IQR 1200–2500). Birth weight of all other children was not

registered.

For all cases, meatal position was 291 glanular, 757 coronal/distal shaft, 83 midschaft, 56 proximal

and 46 penoscrotal. The position of DCS was: 681 distal shaft, 392 midshaft, and 160 proximal

shaft. Preoperative penile length was 43 mm(IQR 35–50). Penile curvature was seen in 894 cases.

185 children had no urethraplasty. 250 children(20 %) had a postoperative complication.

Univariate and multivariate analysis of significant outcome variables are shown. Pre-or dysmaturity

and penile length at operation were not significant for outcome(p=0.538 and p=0.581 resp).

CONCLUSIONS

Meatal position and position of DCS are the only contributing non-modifiable predictive factors for

complications after hypospadias surgery. Pre- or dysmaturity, penile length and penile curvature did

not influence outcome significantly.
