Frequency of urethrocutneous fistula following snodgrass repair for distal penile hypospadias in children
Keywords:

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 distal penile hypospadias without chordee and was conducted at Department of Pediatric Surgery, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar from 15 Jan, 2021 to 14 Jan, 2023. All patients underwent Snodgrass repair for distal penile hypospadias. Patients were followed for 3 months for fistula formation. Results: Sixty (44.17%) patients were recorded in 4-8 years age group whereas 76 (55.88%) patients were recorded in 9-14 years age group. As per frequencies and percentages for urethrocutaneous fistula, 09 (6.6%) patients were recorded with urethrocutaneou fistula. Conclusions: for the management of distal hypospadias, TIP urethroplasty is simple, single stage operation and has good functional and low complication rate.
