Abstract
Background: The Transverse Preputial Onlay Island Flap (TPOIF) technique is frequently used in cases with mild chordee and small glans. This study's objective was to evaluate the surgical outcomes of this technique at our center.
Materials and methods: This study consisted of hypospadias patients diagnosed with small glans (diameter <14 mm) and mild chordee (<30°), underwent TPOIF urethroplasty.
Results: A total of 64 cases were included in this study. The mean glans diameter was 10.6 mm. The complication rate was 9.4 %.
Conclusions: The TPOIF technique provides encouraging results for treating hypospadias with small glans, though larger studies are needed.
