Objective:To summarize and share the experience of one-stage feminization surgery in children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).Methods:The clinical data of CAH female children in the Department of Pediatric Urology, the Second Affiliated Hospital and Yuying Children’s Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the Prader classification standard, the external genital virilism of children was graded. The cases of Prader grades Ⅱ to Ⅳ were underwent clitoroplasty and labiaplasty, while the cases of Prader Ⅱ and Ⅳ grades were required further vaginoplasty.Partial urogenital sinus mobilization(PUM) or total urogenital sinus mobilization(TUM )was performed according to the length of the urethrovaginal junction to the vulvar opening during the procedure. The postoperative follow-up was included the recovery of the external genitalia wound, the child’s ability to control urination, and the family members’ satisfaction with the child’s external genitalia appearance. Six months after the operation, the satisfaction with the appearance of the external genitalia was evaluated in the outpatient clinic, including four aspects: clitoris, labia majora, labia minora, and vaginal appearance.Results:A total of 18 female children were enrolled, ranging in age from 2 to 9 years old, with an average age of 4.5 years. There were 5 cases of Prader grade Ⅱ, 9 cases of grade Ⅲ, and 4 cases of grade Ⅳ. Ten cases (9 cases of Prader grade Ⅲ and 1 case of grade Ⅳ) underwent PUM, and 3 cases of Prader grade Ⅳ underwent TUM. All patients were followed up for 6-12 months after the operation, and all the wounds of the external genitalia of the children were healed in one stage. The satisfaction of family members to the appearance of external genitalia of children: 15 cases were satisfied, 3 cases were not satisfied; 3 patients were found to have overactive bladder two weeks after the operation, and no special treatment was given, the symptoms disappeared three months after the procedure, and the other children had no abnormal urination control ability. Six months after the process, the external genitalia was evaluated in the physician’s clinic: 17 cases were satisfied, and one was dissatisfied.Conclusions:The surgical method can be selected for better results according to the degree of external genitalia virilism and the common channel length in CAH female children.
