Surgical Approaches and Long-Term Outcomes in Adults with Complex Reoperative Hypospadias Repair

Purpose: Patients with failed hypospadias repair are a challenging population for pediatric and reconstructive urologists. We describe our long-term outcomes and factors associated with complications of repeat hypospadias repair.Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the records of 32 adult patients with a history of hypospadias repair who required subsequent urethroplasty between 2002 and 2012. Data on the presenting complaint, past medical and surgical history, demographic data, surgical approach, intraoperative findings and complications were collected and analyzed.Results: Median patient age at urethroplasty was 32 years. Stricture of the penile urethra was the most common presentation. Urethroplasty was done in 30 patients as stricture treatment, 1 underwent perineal urethrostomy and 1 underwent diverticulectomy. Two-stage repair was performed in 90% of the men who underwent urethroplasty. The initial success rate was 83% in patients who underwent 1 or 2-stage urethroplasty. At a median f...
