SUCCESS RATE AND COMPLICATIONS OF HYPOSPADIAS REPAIR: A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL EXPERIENCE

Introduction: Hypospadias is one of the most widespread congenital disabilities in men that can be surgically corrected to preserve the proper functionality and cosmetic appearance of the penis. Although progress is made, there are still issues concerning complications, particularly in the proximal cases. Objective: To evaluate the success rate and complications associated with hypospadias repair in a tertiary care hospital setting. Material and Methods: The study was a prospective observational study conducted at Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar, from 15 January, 2025 to 15 June, 2025. Eighty-six male patients had primary hypospadias repair. The information was documented and processed in terms of surgical methods, complications, and results through SPSS version 25. Results: Among 86 patients, 54 had distal and 32 had proximal hypospadias. The most frequently applied was TIP urethroplasty. The figure of the total success was 76.70, and complications occurred in 23.30 and consisted of fistula (10.5) and meatal stenosis (5.8). Conclusion: Most cases of hypospadias repair provide good results, although proximal forms are still susceptible to complications necessitating unique surgical strategies and close monitoring.
