The controversies in chordee without hypospadias are mostly focussed on the definition and treatment of type I and type IV chordee. In this respect we believe that surgical exploration is necessary to make a precise classification leading to the most appropriate therapy. We present 5 cases, 3 of which had type I chordee, 1 had type II and 1 had type III. In the 2 cases with type I chordee, type IV chordee coexisted. Although all the patients have had satisfactory cosmetic results, 3 of them should be reevaluated after puberty since they are prepubertal yet.
