Key information

About this study

Hypospadias is a common congenital urological birth defect. Urethro-cutaneous fistula (UCF) is the most common complication of surgical repair hypospadias and it remains the primary concern of surgeons dealing with hypospadias repair.

cyanoacrylate has been reported to enhance the healing process. this study tries to evaluate the clinical impact of cyanoacrylate on the repair of urethro-cutaneous fistula after surgical repair of hypospadias

this study evaluates the impact of using cyanoacrylate as an interposition substance in surgical repair of UCF after hypospadias in comparison to the classic surgical repair technique

  • multiple fistulas
  • uncorrected obstruction distal to the fistula
  • necrotic tissue
  • active infection at the fistula site
  • severely scarred skin
  • deficient dartos around the fistula
  • fistulas more proximal to the mid penile position
