Abstrakt: Objectives: Hypospadias is the most common anomaly of the male genital system after undescended testis. More than 200 surgical repair techniques have been described for the treatment of hypospadias due to many different meatus localisations and other accompanying anomalies. Kutlay defined a new technique in 2010 with 10 patients with distal hypospadias patients. We compared this new technique with tubularized incised plate urethroplasty (TIP) which is one of the most frequently performed methods. Methods: 148 patients with hypospadias who underwent surgery at the Urology and Pediatric Surgery Clinic during the period of January 2010 to December 2022 in the first and 2nd clinic, were retrospectively analyzed. The study focused on the remaining 83 patients with distal hypospadias for the purpose of comparison. Results: The mean age of group one was 10.0 (± 6.9, range 2–27), while for group two it was 10.8 (± 5.9, range 3–23). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of anatomical position of the meatus, stricture and fistula complications (p > 0.5). Conclusion: The Kutlay technique has been described as an easy-to-learn and feasible method with reliable results. No significant difference in complications was observed in this study compared with TIP, which is known as the standard technique worldwide. We would like to suggest that the method be considered for further evaluation with larger patient groups and different techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
