About Hypospadias Surgery

Hypospadias surgery is a specialized reconstructive procedure performed by a urologist to correct a congenital condition where the urethral opening (meatus) is located on the underside of the penis rather than at the tip. This condition can affect urination and, later in life, sexual function. The primary goal of the surgery is to reposition the urethral opening to the tip of the penis, straighten the penis if there is associated chordee (curvature), and reconstruct the foreskin for a normal cosmetic appearance. The procedure is typically performed in early childhood, often between 6 and 18 months of age, to allow for proper healing and normal development. Modern surgical techniques are highly successful, aiming to create a functional, straight penis that allows for normal standing urination and future sexual activity.
