OBJECTIVETo investigate the techniques of surgical correction of penoscrotal transposition with hypospadias.

METHODSWe retrospectively studied 83 cases of penoscrotal transposition with hypospadias treated by surgery from January 2003 to June 2009, and analyzed the surgical techniques and follow-up results.

RESULTSThe patients underwent urethroplasty with simultaneous or staged surgical correction of penoscrotal transposition. Postoperative follow-up was conducted for 0.5-5 years. Eighty-one of the patients were satisfied with the appearance of the reconstructed penis and scrotum, and satisfactory outcomes were achieved in the other 2 with severe hypospadias after a second surgical correction of penoscrotal transposition.

CONCLUSIONUrethroplasty with simultaneous or staged surgical correction of penoscrotal transposition is recommendable for its resultant penile straightness, desirable penoscrotal appearance, good surgical prognosis and few postoperative complications.
