OBJECTIVE
To explore the treatment of hypospadias with hydrocele.
METHODS
Nine patients with hypospadias complicated by hydrocele underwent urethroplasty with tunica vaginalis flap.
RESULTS
Satisfactory results were achieved in 7 cases, all with a normal anatomic position of urethral meatus, perfect urination and no infection. Local infection and meatal stricture occurred in 1 case, which was restored to normal by urethral sounding. Scrotal urinary fistula developed in another.
CONCLUSION
With minimum surgical trauma, conveniently available material and fast tissue repair, urethroplasty with tunica vaginalis flap is a desirable method for the treatment of hypospadias with hydrocele.
