Abstract

Objective: To investigate the techniques of surgical correction of penoscrotal transposition with hypospadias.<br />Methods: We retrospectively studied 83 cases of penoscrotal transposition with hypospadias treated by surgery from January 2003 to June 2009, and analyzed the surgical techniques and follow-up results.<br />Results: The patients underwent urethroplasty with simultaneous or staged surgical correction of penoscrotal transposition. Postoperative follow-up was conducted for 0.5-5 years. Eighty-one of the patients were satisfied with the appearance of the reconstructed penis and scrotum, and satisfactory outcomes were achieved in the other 2 with severe hypospadias after a second surgical correction of penoscrotal transposition.<br />Conclusion: Urethroplasty with simultaneous or staged surgical correction of penoscrotal transposition is recommendable for its resultant penile straightness, desirable penoscrotal appearance, good surgical prognosis and few postoperative complications.
