The new era of hypospadias surgery.
The authors review four current techniques in hypospadias surgery that yield superior functional and aesthetic results to those obtained in the older, multi-stage repairs. If the repair is performed before the age of memory recall, there will be less psychological trauma to both the patient and his parents.
