The Hypospadias, Chordee, Orthoplasty and The Prepucial Hood

1.1. Purpose: Making the surgeons aware of the significance of penile chordee, need of optimal straightening of penile shaft (orthoplasty) and appropriate use of well-developed prepucial hood for re-construction of an ideal neo-urethral plate and a near normal neo-urethra by its tubularization and finally re-enforcement of the neo-urethra by prepucial dartos fascial flap to minimize post-operative morbidities.

1.2. Aims and Objectives: Exact assessment of characteristics of chordee by artificial erection of penis, achieving acceptable orthoplasty before commencing upon final neo-urethroplasty and making maximum use of prepucial hood skin in (i) formation of neo-urethral plate and to have an ideal near normal non-hairy and resistance free neo-urethra and or (ii) designing and harvesting various types of skin and or water proofing flaps because of its axial vascularity.
