| Abstract | ||||
| Background There is yet no perfect Procedure for repairing hypospadias. In certain cases, a graft is required to reinforce the poor urethral plate (UP). The study aims to assess the efficacy of dorsal inlay preputial graft urethroplasty (DIGU) as a primary repair for narrow urethral plate distal and mid-penile hypospadias. Patients and methods A 40- child who underwent dorsal inlay preputial graft urethroplasty Repair for primary distal or mid-penile hypospadias at least 6 months old, as well as a UP less than 8 mm in a noncircumcised penis, were included in the research. Results The success rate was 75% (30 patients) and the Complications rate was 25% (10 patients). Six (60%) of the ten complicated patients had UP widths of 2.5–4 mm (total of 8 patients), implying that 75% of these patients had complications. There were four patients with fistula, two patients with meatal stenosis, two patients with meatal retraction, and two patients with failure. Conclusion One of the main factors influencing the surgical result of the hypospadias correction is the width and configuration of the UP. | ||||
