Abstract

Purpose: To create awareness about challenges, difficulties, problems and complexities of hypospadias surgeries faced by Hypospadiologists, hypospadiacs and their parents. Aims and Objectives: To overcome these problems and challenges of hypospadias surgery efficiently in a scientific manner in longer-term of follow-ups for better post-operative results. Material and Methods: The challenges, difficulties, problems and complexities detailed in this study were those that were faced by the authors during the period 1984 to 2016 while managing hypospadias patients to start with and thereafter looking after the Hypospadias and Vesico-Vaginal Fistulas (VVFs) Clinic at Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences (PGIMS), Rohtak. Observations: The challenges, difficulties, problems and complexities observed by the authors during management of hypospadias patients started from the day one of having seen them till their successful repair and there after ensuring them to remain complication free in longer-term of follow-ups, marital relations and reproduction. Conclusion: For successful management of challenges, difficulties, problems and complexities of hypospadias surgeries in a scientific manner to an acceptable level of satisfaction, that too in the absence of availabilities of usable healthy and dispensable tissues, requires a brain-storming exercise and planning by the surgical team to achieve the required goals.
