Hypospadias |

21.1Introduction
•The term hypospadias is derived from the Greek words hypo (below, too little) and Spadone (crack, gutter).
•Hypospadias is defined as the combination of three anatomical abnormalities of the penis (Figs. 21.1, 21.2, 21.3, and 21.4):
–Ectopic proximally placed meatus which may be located on the ventral side of the penis at any position between the tip of the glans and the perineum.
–A dorsal winged prepuce and lack of ventral prepuce.
–A ventral penile shaft deviation.
–The second and third characteristics may not necessarily be present.
–The megalomeatus is an exception as it is characterized by a complete prepuce and a coronal lying meatus adjacent to a non- closed-glans with an open navicular fossa. This is also called (MIP) Megameatus with Intact Prepuce (MIP) variant of hypospadias.
•Hypospadias is caused by the arrest of normal development of the urethra, at various stages of embryonic development (9–13 weeks of pregnancy).
•Hypospadias is among the most common birth defects in males.
•The exact incidence of hypospadias is not known but it has been estimated that hypospadias affects approximately 1 of every 200–250 male live newborns.
•The incidence of hypospadias is higher in whites than in blacks.
•Hypospadias is more common in Jewish and Italian people.
•Hypospadias is also more common in the Caucasian population followed by AfricanAmericans and then the Hispanic Americans.
•The incidence of hypospadias is reported to be increasing in both Europe and North America from an incidence of 20.2 per 10,000 in 1970 to a current incidence of 39.7 per 10,000 children born in the U.S.A.
•The reason for this increase is not exactly known
•There is a definite familial occurrence of hypospadias. This is estimated to be about 7 %.
•In approximately 80–90 % of cases, hypospadias is of the distal part while the remaining 10–20 % have proximal hypospadias.
•There is an increased probability for the occurrence of hypospadias in the following situations:
–Father with hypospadias
–Low birth weight
–Twin or triplet births
–Maternal iron supplements
–Smoking mothers
–Fathers with pesticide contact
•Chordee is fibrous remnant of the corpus spongiosum distal to the meatus. It extends in a V shape on both sides, and acts by the lack

Figs. 21.1 and 21.2 Clinical photographs showing two patients with hypospadias. The ectopic urethra is located on the ventral side of the shaft penis. Note the ectopic urethral meatus and also the dorsal winged prepuce
of elasticity producing a ventral deformity (Figs. 21.5 and 21.6).
•Chordee (downward bending of the penis) is another feature of hypospadias seen
more commonly in those with proximal hypospadias. This is found in 10 % of distal hypospadias and 50 % of proximal hypospadias.
Figs. 21.3 and 21.4 Clinical photographs showing two patients with hypospadias. Note the lack of prepuce ventrally. Note also the ventral curvature of the penis

•Scrotal transposition is seen usually in patients with more proximal hypospadias and it is associated with bifid scrotum (Penoscrotal transposition and bifid scrotum) (Figs. 21.7 and 21.8).
•Characteristically, in the majority of patients with hypospadias the foreskin is underdeveloped and does not wrap completely around the penis, leaving the underside of the glans penis

uncovered by foreskin (Hooded foreskin). The only exception to this is the megameatus.
•It must be emphasized that not all newborns with partial foreskin development have hypospadias, as some have a normal urinary opening with a hooded foreskin (This is called “chordee without hypospadias”).
•Megameatus with intact prepuce (MIP) variant of hypospadias occurs when the foreskin is normal and there is a concealed hypospadias. The condition is discovered during newborn circumcision or later in childhood when the foreskin begins to retract (Figs. 21.9 and 21.10).
•The most common associated defect with hypospadias is an undescended testicle, which has been reported in approximately 3% of infants with distal hypospadias and 10% of those having proximal hypospadias (Figs. 21.11 and 21.12).
•In patients with proximal hypospadias, a karyotype and endocrine evaluation should be performed to detect disorders of sexual development or hormone deficiencies.
•Using modern surgical techniques, a normal appearing penis can usually be expected from hypospadias repair.
•Hypospadias repair should be performed only by experienced surgeons and at centers with extensive experience.
•To emphasize this, Duckett in 1995 coined the concept of hypospadiologists (surgeons who subspecialize in hypospadias repair).
•Currently, hypospadias is repaired not only for functional reasons but also for cosmetic reasons.
•The postoperative penis should:
–Be suitable for normal voiding
–Be suitable for future sexual intercourse
–Have an acceptable cosmetic appearance
•More than 300 different types of repairs have been described in the medical literature.
•The most common operation to repair hypospadias is the tubularized incised plate or “TIP” repair. This procedure can be used for all distal hypospadias repairs.
•There are several techniques to repair proximal hypospadias as a single stage or two stage operations.
•There are several factors that contributed recently to increased success of hypospadias repair. These include:
