Abstract

When we began our association for the purpose of treating hypospadias in the early 1950s we used a tube graft of full thickness skin in a 1-stage procedure. We have made modifications to improve the appearance of the glans and now use 1 of 4 procedures, dependent on the location of the urethral meatus. The procedures are described and our results are tabulated.
