Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation of the type of hypospadias and external genital system malformations. Methods From Jan 2000 to Oct 2009, the data of 632 patients diagnosed with hypospadias was analyzed retrospectively. The proportion of all types of hypospadias and the frequency of external genital system malformations were statistically analyzed. Results Among all cases, 12.6% exhibited mild hypospadias, 22. 8% moderate, 43. 2% severe and 21.4% had extremely severe hypospadias. One hundred and eighty-four cases with external genital system malformations were classified into penoscrotal transposition, cryptorchidism, hydrocele of tunica vaginalis,concealed penis and pseudovagina. The probability was about 24.8% (157 cases) of 632 patients with hypospadias. There was significant difference and a positive correlation among the type of hypospadias with total malformations, penoscrotal transposition, cryptorchidism. Conclusions In this patient cohort, moderate and severe hypospadias accounted for the majority of hypospadias. Penoscrotal transposition was the most frequent external genital system malformation in hypospadias, followed by cryptorchidism and hydrocele of tunics vaginalis. More severe hypospadias is accompanied with a higher probability of the external genital system malformations, penoscrotal transposition and cryptorchidism.
