Abstract
|
|
|
Urethrocutaneous fistulas are one of the major causes of morbidity following hypospadias repair. It is desirable to design and execute urethral surgery so that primary and complete healing occurs. But from a practical point of view, it will probably be impossible to achieve that goal. So, any surgeon performing hypospadias repair must be prepared to manage the fistulas. In this article, we reviewed 25 patients with urethrocutaneous fistulas following hypospadias repair. In l8 patients the purse-string suture with subcutaneous running sutures was applied. The initial success rate was 77.8%(14/18) and total success rate was 94.4% (17/18) after 2nd operation.
