Abstract

The success of various types of flaps procedures for primary hypospadias was assessed taking the location of meatus and the degree of chordee as the basis. Totally 200 patients with primary hypospadias were operated: 80 by perimeatal flap and tube repair  70by preputial flap and 50 by onlay falp. The rates of success in cases, perimeatal flap and preputial flap were found as 88%, 86, 81% respectively. The success of treatment in hypospadias cases is closely related to the age of the patient, the experience of the surgeon and the choice of an appropriate method. However, the presence of chordee and the proximally located meatus are among the leading factors that influence the rate of success.
