Abstract

Objective: Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital anomalies among males. Hypospadias repair is still a challenging issue due to its results and frequently seen complications. The most commonly used techniques are the meatal advancement with glansplasty incorporated and tubularized incised plate urethroplasty. The experience of the surgeon is an important factor that influence the success of the surgery. In the literature, there are not enough data about the success of these operations done by different surgeons under the supervision of a pediatric urologist.
