| Popis: | Purpose: In our hands complete primary repair (CPR) of bladder exstrophy results in hypospadias in two-thirds of boys. To our knowledge hypospadias repair following CPR of bladder exstrophy has not been reported previously. We report our experience with hypospadias repair following CPR of bladder exstrophy. Materials and Methods: A total of 22 boys with bladder exstrophy underwent CPR using Mitchell's technique between November 1998 and January 2002. The procedure resulted in hypospadias in 15 boys (68%). The site of the meatus was distal penile in 5 patients, mid penile in 3 and proximal penile in 7. Hypospadias repair was performed in all 15 boys. The 5 patients with distal penile hypospadias underwent repair consisting of Thiersch-Duplay urethroplasty with dorsal incision in 3 and tubularized vertical island flap with glanular tunnel in 2. All patients with mid (3) or proximal (7) penile hypospadias underwent Mustarde repair with glanular tunnel. Results: Followup ranged from 6 to 18 months (median 13). The Thiersch-Duplay procedure with dorsal incision resulted in fistula/stenosis in 2 of 3 boys. None of the remaining 12 boys with tubularized penile flap urethroplasty (tubularized vertical island flap or Mustarde) with glanular tunneling had development of fistula or stenosis. Complete degloving of the penis and penile skin redistribution were not necessary with the Mustarde technique. Conclusions: Thiersch-Duplay urethroplasty with dorsal incision does not seem to be a good option for hypospadias repair following CPR of bladder exstrophy. The use of penile skin as a tubularized flap with glanular tunneling seems to yield excellent functional/cosmetic results. |
