Male genital malformations that are not associated with voiding dysfunction are often underreported by families or male patients until the boy reaches marriageable age. At that point, they seek consultation, fearing rejection by potential partners and desiring a rapid and possibly single-stage repair. Therefore, it is not uncommon for primary repair to be performed after puberty, once the penis has fully developed. This may also have consequences on the complexity of surgical repair (1), given that ventral chordee can alter penile development, leading to a higher degree of corporal fibrosis and consequently a more severe ventral curvature. Additionally, the proportion between penile dimensions and craniofacial dimensions is not constant throughout childhood. Genitals are underdeveloped during prepubescence, while the craniofacial region reaches adult dimensions more rapidly, resulting in tissues like buccal mucosa being more abundant compared to adults for pendular urethra reconstruction. These concepts are crucial when planning primary hypospadias repair in adults, as the severity of genital hypospadias may be greater and graft availability may be insufficient.</p><p><strong>Surgical technique: </strong>In our practice, it has not been uncommon to encounter cases of primary hypospadias repair where common techniques such as Asopa (2) buccal mucosa graft (BMG) urethoplasty or Bracka two-stage repair were not applicable due to limited availability of BMG to reconstruct the entire penile urethra. In this article, we aim to describe a technique for repairing severe primary hypospadias, where the urethra is reconstructed in a single stage using a pedicle preputial tube, and severe chordee resulting from delayed hypospadias repair combined with corporal fibrosis is resolved through BMG grafting. Patients are typically assessed preoperatively to evaluate the development of the glans for a glansplasty, the availability of the prepuce, and the condition of the buccal mucosa on both cheeks. Subsequently, surgery is performed under general anesthesia with the patient in a supine position. Initially, artificial erection is induced to accurately gauge the severity of curvature. This technique is typically reserved for severe cases of hypospadias where the ventral curvature exceeds 60°. Degloving is then carried out while preserving the vascular support of the prepuce. A circumferential incision is made 5 mm below the coronal sulcus, and both the skin and the dartos are dissected up to the level of Buck's fascia. It is crucial to preserve the vascularization of the dartos during this step, as failure to do so may prevent subsequent flap harvesting. Next, the curvature is reassessed. If a severity above 60° is confirmed, the urethra is transected. However, this step often does not fully resolve the ventral chordee, as the development of the ","PeriodicalId":49283,"journal":{"name":"International Braz J Urol","volume":"51 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12236982/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143659352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, traditional quality assessments often overlook male infertility, which contributes to nearly half of all infertility cases. This article explores the implementation of a quality management system (QMS), specifically ISO 9001, tailored to ART centers that prioritize male reproductive health. Drawing from our experience at ANDROFERT, a male-focused fertility clinic, we demonstrate how process standardization, structured workflows, and continuous improvement strategies can optimize diagnostics, microsurgical procedures, and laboratory practices. Integrating male-specific procedures-such as varicocele repair, microdissection testicular sperm extraction (micro-TESE), and vasovasostomy-into the QMS is discussed, along with performance monitoring tools, including key performance indicators and patient satisfaction metrics. Collaboration with an academic institution is essential to support education and ensure training is aligned with quality and safety protocols. Our center's dual IVF laboratories and andrology services exemplify how advanced testing, including sperm DNA fragmentation analysis and handling of surgically retrieved sperm, are seamlessly integrated into quality pathways. By embedding male reproductive health into QMS frameworks, ART centers can improve clinical outcomes, foster interdisciplinary collaboration, and enhance patient engagement. We advocate for a multidimensional approach to quality-beyond pregnancy rates-encompassing safety, effectiveness, patient-centeredness, timeliness, efficiency, and equity.
