Pearls and Pitfalls in Usage of Plasma-Rich Platelet Graft Versus Dartos Flap in Distal Penile Hypospadias Repair

January 29, 2025 updated by: Ahmed ali amen diab, Assiut University

Hypospadias is the most common congenital anomaly of penis. It is the second most common genital birth defect in boys after cryptorchidism The reinforcement of hypospadias repair with an intermediate layer is believed to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications such as uretherocautanous fistula.

Hypospadias is classified by the location of the abnormal urethral meatus into distal penile (glandular ,subcoronal and distal penile), mid penile and proximal penile hypospadias Indeed, uretherocautanous fistula is most common complication after urethroplasty, with introduction of a protective layer between the neourethra and the covering skin strongly reduces fistulas occurrence and the overall complication the aim of the study To evaluate and to compare the use of PRP covering layer and dartos fascia flap layer in regard to complication rates in hypospadias repair

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Group A
Plasma-Rich Platelet Graft
Procedure: Plasma-Rich Platelet Graft
The clot was extracted from the tube, separated from red blood cells, and gently compressed between two surgical swabs to obtain a soft and resistant membrane. The Snodgrass technique was carried out for all patients, with a suitable size catheter (8-12-Fr), repair was carried out by a continuous layer of polyglycolic suture (Vicryl) size 6/0, covered by an interrupted second layer. In group A, after finishing the Snodgrass TIPU, a PRP sheet coverage was applied over urethroplasty and secured by Vicryl 7/0, and finally the skin sutured directly without any covering layers
Active Comparator: Group B
Dartos Flap
Procedure: Dartos Flap
preputial dartos flap will be used
