Repair outcomes for distal hypospadias in uncircumcised children
Part of Genetic & congenital, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how well surgery repairs a common birth defect called distal hypospadias, where the opening of the penis is not at the tip. It aims to see how the repair works in children who have not had prior surgery and who are not circumcised.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must have distal hypospadias (the opening of the penis is on the underside, near the tip).
- Your child must not be circumcised (foreskin still present).
- Your child must not have meatal stenosis (narrowing of the opening of the penis).
- Your child must not have had any previous surgery for hypospadias or any other penile procedure.
- Your child must be able to attend follow-up visits for at least 6 months after the surgery.

This study compares two surgical techniques (Urethral Mobilisation and Mathieu) for correcting distal hypospadias, a condition where the opening of the penis is not at the tip. The goal is to find which method gives better results with fewer complications.
This study follows boys having their first surgery for hypospadias (where the pee hole is not at the tip of the penis) to find out what factors lead to the best results. The goal is to help doctors better predict who will have a smooth recovery.
This study compares a standard surgery (TIP) to one that uses a small graft (DIG) to see which gives better results for boys with hypospadias. It may help determine if adding the graft improves healing and reduces complications.
This trial compares two techniques for repairing distal hypospadias, a condition where the opening of the penis is not at the tip. It uses either a special blood-derived graft or a small flap of tissue to support the repair, aiming to improve outcomes.
This trial compares two surgical techniques to fix a common birth defect where the opening of the urethra is on the underside of the penis. It tests whether a new method using a special glue is better than the standard method.
This study compares two surgical techniques to correct a severe curve in boys undergoing hypospadias repair. If your child has a significant bend (30 degrees or more) after the surgeon cuts the urethral plate, this trial may help determine which method gives better results.
