An Unusual Variant of Mid-penile Hypospadias with Intact Prepuce and Patulous Urethra – Addition of a Drop to the Sea of Hypospadias Variants

Hypospadias is one of the most common and extensively studied pathology of paediatric surgery. Although a plethora of research articles describing hypospadias and its variants exist, new variants are often encountered and they never cease to surprise us. We, in our case, are trying to add a drop to the sea of variants of hypospadias. A 2-year-old boy was brought with an abnormally large and patulous urethral opening at the mid-penile region with intact prepuce and chordee. In this case report, we will review the available literature on this rare variant and discuss its management.

Abstract

Hypospadias is one of the most common and extensively studied pathology of paediatric surgery. Although a plethora of research articles describing hypospadias and its variants exist, new variants are often encountered and they never cease to surprise us. We, in our case, are trying to add a drop to the sea of variants of hypospadias. A 2-year-old boy was brought with an abnormally large and patulous urethral opening at the mid-penile region with intact prepuce and chordee. In this case report, we will review the available literature on this rare variant and discuss its management.
