The general principle for hypospadias repair consists in the tubularization of ventral urethral plate, bringing the meatus all the way to the tip of the glans, depending on the presence of associated ventral penile curvature
It has been difficult to prove the advantages of the GTIP over the TIP repair as both have low complication rates, demanding a large number of subjects for a randomized study aiming to answer this question
Summary
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Pediatric Urology, a section of the journal Frontiers in Pediatrics. More than 300 different techniques for hypospadias repair do exist, successful outcome depends mainly on the surgeon’s skills, availability of adequate tissue for urethral reconstruction and choice of the best suitable technique in each case. The general principle for hypospadias repair consists in the tubularization of ventral urethral plate, bringing the meatus all the way to the tip of the glans, depending on the presence of associated ventral penile curvature.
