Comparing two repair methods for hypospadias near the tip
Part of Genetic & congenital, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be older than 6 months.
- Your child has a type of hypospadias where the opening is near the tip of the penis (distal).
- Your child has not had previous surgery for hypospadias.

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 trial tests two ways to add an extra layer during hypospadias repair surgery in young boys. One method uses a material made from your child's own blood (platelet-rich fibrin), and the other uses a small flap of tissue from the penis. The goal is to see which method helps the healing better.
This trial compares two surgical techniques to repair distal hypospadias in boys. It aims to find which method works better for fixing the opening of the urethra near the tip of the penis.
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 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 trial tests whether adding a special gel made from the child's own blood, called platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), helps healing after surgery to fix hypospadias, a birth condition where the urinary opening is on the underside of the penis. It may reduce complications and improve recovery.
