    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Plastic Surgery

    Background:

    • Orthoplasty for epispadias chordee has historically yielded suboptimal outcomes.
    • Corporeal deformity is a key challenge in surgical correction for epispadias.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel sequential stepwise approach for assessing and correcting corporeal deformity in epispadias.
    • To improve functional penile length and straightening using dermal grafts.

    Main Methods:

    • A sequential stepwise protocol for corporeal deformity assessment and correction was developed.
    • Dermal grafts were incorporated on the dorsal aspect of the corpora cavernosa as needed.
    • Surgical success was evaluated based on penile length, angle, and cosmetic appearance.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed method achieved success in 7 out of 8 patients.
    • Significant improvements were noted in functional penile length.
    • A notable enhancement in the penile dangle angle (45 degrees below horizontal) and overall cosmetic results was observed.

    Conclusions:

    • The sequential stepwise approach, including dermal grafting, offers a promising solution for orthoplasty in epispadias.
    • This technique can lead to improved functional and cosmetic outcomes in penile straightening procedures.
    • Further research may validate this method for broader clinical application.
