Congenital anterior urethrocutaneous fistula: a single-center retrospective study
The surgical outcomes of congenital anterior urethrocutaneous fistula are generally favorable. For patients without penile curvature, with well-developed urethral plates and sufficient surrounding fascial tissue, the Mathieu or Duplay techniques are suitable for repair. The Onlay or TIP techniques may be preferred for those with narrow urethral plates. For cases with severe penile curvature, transection of the urethral plate with staged repair may be warranted.
