Abstract
Surgical technique for midshaft hypospadias has evolved since the time of Horton and Devine. The most common type of repair that is currently used is the tubularized incised plate urethroplasty, which is a modification of the Thiersch-Duplay hypospadias repair. The authors review the steps of this procedure in detail and discuss troubleshooting for issues that may arise during the repair. Alternatives for chordee correction and skin coverage are reviewed. The authors briefly discuss outcomes and possible complications. In addition, there is a step-by-step video of a midshaft hypospadias repair that highlights the surgical technique. This review contains 9 figures, and 23 references. Key Words: chordee, dartos flap, hypospadias, midshaft hypospadias, surgical technique, tubularized incised plate (TIP), urethrocutaneous fistula, ventral curvature
