Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Many surgeons offer foreskin reconstruction (FR) as a routine part of hypospadias repair. We present a step-by-step video of the procedure of Tubularised Incised Plate (TIP) repair, FR and dorsal plication through a ventral skin incision.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A ventral incision is made between the inner preputial mucosa and the outer skin extending below the meatus. Ventral degloving is carried out. The dissection is extended laterally around the corporal bodies. The point of maximal curvature (PMC) is marked on the dorsal midline. A vertical incision is made and closed transversely with 5-0 prolene suture in a Heineke- Mikulicz fashion. Urethroplasty is performed in 2 layers using 7-0 polydioxanone (PDS). Spongioplasty and ventral dartos are used as barrier layers. Glansplasty is performed in 2 layers.FR is carried out in 3 layers.
DISCUSSION
Curvature correction is key to good outcome. Dorsal degloving can be achieved through a ventral incision allowing exposure of the dorsal midline for plication sutures.
RESULTS
The patient had good cosmetic and functional outcome at 1 month follow up.
CONCLUSION
FR can be safely performed during TIP repair for distal hypospadias repair. Curvature of less than 30° can be corrected through a ventral incision only.
