Combined Use of the Mathieu and Incised Urethral Plate Techniques for Repair of Distal Penile Hypospadias

Indian Journal of Surgery volume 77, pages 694–697 (2015)Cite this article

Abstract

Though both the Mathieu and incised urethral plate techniques are individually described for single-stage repair of distal penile hypospadias, each has its own shortcomings. We describe the combination of the two techniques by taking their advantages and reducing their limitations. Thirteen patients belonging to the age group of 3–22 years with distal penile hypospadias and mild chordee were operated by this technique with a mean follow-up of 8 months. One patient had urethrocutaneous fistula, and another patient had partial skin necrosis which healed spontaneously without fistula. Both of these complications occurred in adult patients. None developed urethral stenosis, and the cosmesis of the glans was excellent in all cases. This technique is very helpful in patients having small flat glans and shallow urethral groove.
