| description | Purpose: We report our complications and success rate in adult hypospadias repair.
Patients and Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients aged ≥17 years who underwent hypospadias repair during 2006–2014. We analyzed two groups, one with primary repair and the other that had secondary repair after failed childhood hypospadias surgery. Outcome was compared between the two groups and among different surgical procedures. Descriptive statistics and Fisher's exact test were used and significance level was set at P < 0.05.
Results: Forty patients were included, of which 26 presented for a secondary repair and 14 for primary repair. The meatus was distal in 15 patients, mid-penile in 16, and penoscrotal in 9. The median age of patients at the time of surgery was 21 years (standard deviation [SD] =4, range 17–30). The median follow-up period was 37 months (SD = 8, range 5–75). In the primary repair group, the success rate was 71% (10/14), whereas in the secondary repair group, the success rate was 55% (14/26). The overall complication rate was 60%. Following a subsequent repair, the overall success rate reached 95% (38/40). There was no significant difference in success or complications between patients who presented with primary or secondary hypospadias or between methods of repair.
Conclusion: Delayed hypospadias repair in adults is associated with a high success rate of 95% with no difference between primary and secondary repair. Secondary repair however may require more than one procedure most of the time. |
