[Urethroplasty in hypoplastic-dysplastic corpus spongiosum and short urethra]

Congenital penile curvature and chordee are a rare malformative condition most frequently associated with hypospadias, but varying degrees of penile curvature are observed with an orthotopic meatus. Disease becomes evident after puberty, when curvature becomes more apparent with erection. We present a case of a young man (16 years old), with ventral congenital penile curvature without hypospadias and with hypoplastic-dysplastic corpus spongiosum and short urethra, who could not have normal sexual intercourses. The patient underwent first-stage urethroplasty with urethral opening and graft of buccal mucosa and creation of a temporary hypospadic meatus. No post-operative complications were observed. There were no residual penile curvatures. Results are promising and satisfactory after the first surgical stage and provide a solid ground for the final reconstruction.
