One‐stage repair of moderately severe hypospadias using a transverse preputial tubularized island flap

Abstract: Background: Transverse preputial tubularized island flap (TPTIF) urethroplasty has been used for the repair of moderately severe hypospadias since Duckett described the procedure in 1980. In spite of the excellent results reported by Duckett, subsequent studies showed high complication rates. A TPTIF procedure modified to reduce the complication rate is presented. Methods: Between 1996 and 1997, 13 boys with moderately severe hypospadias were repaired with the TPTIF procedure. Patient age ranged from 10 months… Show more

“…In group A consisting of 33 cases, free preputial graft onlay full thickness urethroplasty was performed. Group B con sisted of 33 cases forming the control group in whom other types of urethroplasty were performed including Mathieu's (5), Duckett's (10), Asopa's (14), Thiersch Duplay (2) and Snodgrass (2).…”

“…Since Duckett rst described the transverse preputial island ap urethroplasty (TPIF), the surgical procedure for repairing hypospadias has been widely used [10]. However, the disadvantage of the operation is that the learning curve required to grasp this technique is steep, as well as intractable complications [11][12][13][14].…”
