We aimed to investigate psychiatric morbidity in men with hypospadias in a ret- rospective clinical cohort study. MATERIAL AND METHODS One hundred and sixty-seven men born with hypospadias, with a mean age of 34 years, completed self-rating scales screening for depressive, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms (CPRS- S-A), as well as symptoms of ADHD (ASRS-short). Thirty-three of these men also underwent an interview screening for psychiatric morbidity (MINI). Their results were compared with those of age-matched population-derived controls. Numerical outcome variables were analyzed with the Mann Whitney-U test and one-way ANOVA. Chi-square or Fisher’s exact test was used for qualitative data. P<0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS There were no significant differences regarding symptoms of ADHD, neither affective symptoms between patients and controls. Seven patients (21 %) and 10 controls (21 %) reported current or previous psychiatric symptoms (p=NS). The distribution did not differ significantly between the dif- ferent severity groups of hypospadias. CONCLUSIONS These results do not support an increase in psychiatric morbidity in men with hypospadias. In order to assure that small differences are found, a larger study population would be necessary.
