title: Crawford modification of Denis Browne hypospadias procedure.
abstract: At Alder Hey Children's Hospital 96 hypospadias repairs were performed from 1969 to 1975, using the Crawford modification of the Denis Browne procedure. The technique is decribed in detail. A 7.29 per cent fistula rate occurred in 69 distal penile, 18 penile, 8 penoscrotal and 1 perineal repairs. The advantageous difference between the Crawford modification and the original description of Denis Browne is that the meatus is placed well onto the glans penis.
