Treatment of urethrocutaneous fistula after congenital hypospadias repair in 25 adults
Objective To analyze the treatment of urethrocutaneous fistula after hypospadias repair in 25 adults for a better approach. Methods We subjected 25 adult patients who suffered from urethrocutaneous fistula after congenital hypospadias repair from 1997 to 2006 in our hospital. Of 25 patients
at the mean age of 26
there were 8 coronary sulcus type
7 penile type
and 10 penoscrotal type. Seven cases had only one fistulous orifice
and 18 had two or more orifices. The simple fistula (9 cases) were repaired with transverse Y-V advancement flap or TIP operation; The complicated fistula were treated with Mathieu technique
TIP technique or pedicled scrotal septum flap and covered with dartos-based flip flaps. Results There were 22 patients having good outcome at once
2 receiving second operation
and the left 1 was recovered after 4 times’ operation. There was no any complication during the follow-up of 6 months to 2 years. Conclusion The surgical treatment for urethrocutaneous fistula after hypospadias repair should be carried out according to the site of fistula and completed status. The simple fistula should be repaired with transverse Y-V advanced flap or TIP technique. Mathieu technique
TIP technique or pedicled scrotal septum flap and covered with dartos-based flip flaps are suitable for complicated fistula.
