Tabularised incised plate urethroplasty (TIP) or Snodgrass procedure is a well accepted technique for distal penile hypospadias repair. Its main complication is formation of urethrocutaneous fistula in the post operative period. Different investigators have tried different reinforcement over neo-urethra to prevent fistula formation. Snodgrass originally applied Dartos flap over neo-urethra. But...

Background: Being a common congenital urogenital disorder, hypospadias is mostly treated by Snodgrass urethroplasty; urethrocutaneous fistula the most frequent complication. Objective: To assess outcomes of Urethroplasty when Buck’s (external spermatic) fascia was used with Dartos to interpose between neourethra and skin compare results only applied. Study Design: Prospective comparative study ...

Circumcision is the most common operation with multiple complications. One of these complications is surgical such as urethrocutaneous fistula due to traumatic and ischemic injury during the operation. A 9-month infant with a history of swelling on the ventral aspect of the penile urethra during micturition was circumcised ritually in 3 months of birth and 6 months later was referred to Imam Re...

Objective: To determine the frequency of urethra-cutaneous fistula during three months following Snodgrass repair for distal penile hypospadias in children. Methods and Material: This Descriptive Cross Sectional study included 135 Children with without chordee was conducted at Department Pediatric Surgery, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar from 15 Jan, 2021 to 14 2023.

INTRODUCTION While the development of fistulae is a well-known complication of radiotherapy, such fistulae can often be challenging to manage. CASE PRESENTATION We describe the case of a 37 year old male who developed in succession a urethrocutaneous fistula to the thigh, a rectourethral fistula and a peritoneo-urethral fistula 35 years after radiotherapy for pediatric pelvic rhabdomyosarcoma...

Urethral fistula formation after urethroplasty for hypospadias is a frequent complication. Repeated failures can occur even after multiple attempts at repair. A surgical procedure is described for a problematic resistant urethrocutaneous fistula (UF) with the transverse turnover flap using the Buck's fascia of the corpus cavernosum. A 23-year-old male was admitted to our hospital with recurrent...
