| Introduction: Hypospadias is a common congenital defect thought to be caused by incomplete fusion of the urethral folds, resulting in a proximally located urethral meatus anywhere from the glans to the perineum. Patients and Methods: Prospective study constitutes (n=65) patients with distal penile hypospadias was repaired by Snodgrass technique and modified Snodgrass technique between a period from (July 2013 to June 2015) to lowering the of fistula complication after hypospadias repair. The mean of age of Snodgrass group is 7.1±3.6 2 (to 17 years in ages) and 6±4.3 (2 to 23 years) in modified Snodgrass group. Results: Four patients (6.15%) had developed urethrocutaneous fistula from the total of cases, and fistula rate in modified Snodgrass group was better than Snodgrass group < br />as the follow: (n=2 patients 4%) in modified Snodgrass group < br />and (n=2 patients 13.3%) in Snodgrass group. Conclusion: The complications edema, infection, hemorrhage, catheter obstruction and fistula formation in modified Snodgrass group was less than Snodgrass group. Modified Snodgrass group is better than the S | ||
