Abstract:
Objective To analyze the relationship between clinical features and age of operation on children with hypospadias,and to explore and determine the factors for hypospadias associated with age at surgery.Methods Retrospective study was conducted in children with hypospadias undergoing operation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2011 to December 2016.The demographics,the degree of hypospadias,complications,age at first urethroplasty and the other factors in patients were recorded,t-test was used to determine the factors associated with surgical timing and the difference was significant when P < 0.05.Results A total of 1 051 cases were included in the study.Among these patients with hypospadias 268 cases (25.5%) were of mild cases,525 cases (50.0%) of moderate,and 258 cases(24.5%) of severe.Nine hundred and forty-six cases(90.0%) did not have complications,while 105 cases(10.0%) had complications.The median age at first urethroplasty was 5.3 years old and 66.22% of them were operated after 3 years,and 4.09% of them were after 18 years old.Insurance types,household income,race did not influence with surgical timing statistically (P > 0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that the several factors were significantly associated with time of surgery:the severity of hypospadias (t =28.10,P =0.000),with or without complications (t =64.17,P =0.000),urban-rural gap (t =7.49,P =0.000),parental education level (t =36.90,P =0.000) and the age of receiving advice from pediatric surgeon (t =5.00,P =0.000).Conclusions The age of surgery in children with hypospadias were significantly affected by the severity of hypospadias,the presence of complications,differences between urban and rural areas,the degree of parental education,and the time of medical advice in the pediatric department of urology.,and the education of hypospadias knowledge for children's parents and related medical personnel at the grass-roots level will advance the age of surgery in children with hypospadias.
