Abstract

Twenty-five cases with urethral fistulas after repair of hypospadias were managed from 1990 to 1994.Seven cases complicated with urethral strictures and three cases had incomplete penoscrotal transposition at the same time.Twenty-three cases(92%)healed after one repairing.So the following points are important to urethral fistulas repair:1.Repair the urethral strictures in the same repairing operation.2.Correct penoscrotal transposition at the same time.3.An advancing skin flap to cover up the suture line of the fistula is better than an overlapped suture. Key words: Hypospadias; Urethral fistula; Urethral stricture
