title: [Anterior hypospadias and chordee: a one-stage cure using a tubulated and reversed flap].
abstract: A one stage urethroplasty using a tubulated and reversed flap was carried out by the authors in 74 cases of hypospadias with chordee between 1978 and 1988. The procedure is derived from the technic of Mustarde and the flip flap of Devine and Horton. The experience led to limit its indication to the patients who have a sufficient length of ventral skin of good quality between the hypospadic meatus and the peno scrotal junction to build the urethra up to the apex of the glans after correction of the chordee. This technic is simple and reliable: complications have been encountered in only two of the last forty cases (one fistula and one urethral stenosis) since the design of the flap was simplified.
