Developmental anomalies associated with hypospadias.

H Shima, F Ikoma, T Terakawa

    The Journal of Urology
    |November 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary

    This study of 272 hypospadias patients found that 40% had urogenital anomalies, with undescended testis being most common. Associated anomalies increased with hypospadias severity, necessitating thorough urological and hormonal evaluations.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Urology
    • Medical Genetics

    Background:

    • Hypospadias is a common congenital penile anomaly.
    • Associated urogenital and extra-urogenital anomalies can complicate surgical management.
    • Understanding the spectrum of these anomalies is crucial for comprehensive patient care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To survey the complicated anomalies in patients with hypospadias.
    • To determine the incidence of specific associated anomalies.
    • To investigate the relationship between anomaly incidence and hypospadias severity.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 272 patients surgically treated for hypospadias.
    • Analysis of recorded urogenital and extra-urogenital anomalies.

  • Correlation of anomaly incidence with hypospadias severity.

    • Main Results:

    • 40% of patients had urogenital anomalies; 9.2% had extra-urogenital anomalies.
    • Most frequent anomalies: undescended testis (13.2%), male vagina/utriculus masculinus (11.8%), prepenile scrotum (7.7%), testicular hypoplasia (6.6%).
    • Incidence of these four anomalies increased with penile deformity severity.

    Conclusions:

    • Hypospadias is frequently associated with other urogenital anomalies.
    • Systemic urological and hormonal examinations are essential, particularly in severe hypospadias cases.
    • Early identification and management of associated anomalies improve surgical outcomes.
