Background: The surgical procedure used to treat hypospadias varies widely in clinical practice due to several considerations. In light of this, we assessed the risks and results of many surgical techniques for correcting hypospadias.
Methods: It was a prospective hospital-based study done for a period of 1 year. All patients with age greater than 12 months who underwent hypospadias repair in the surgery department of PMSSY super speciality hospital (KIMS, Hubballi) from January 2022 to December 2023 were included in the study. Approval from institutional ethical committee was taken before initiation of the study. Written informed consent was taken from the parents of the study participants. Total 42 patients with hypospadias were included in the present study.
Results: The most common type of hypospadias was distal seen in 67% of patients among distal the most common site of urethral opening was distal penile in 43% followed by mild penile in 40%. Proximal type was second most common type seen in 24% and 7% were granular. TPIF repair was the most common choice of operation among surgeons in distal and proximal hypospadias due to ease of application and less complications and it was statistically significant followed by Snodgrass repair mostly seen in distal hypospadias.
Conclusions: In this study, distal type hypospadias was the most prevalent form. Roughly one-third of the patients received TPIF surgery, whereas the same percentage had Snodgrass repair for their hypospadias.
