The Barcat balanic groove technique for the repair of distal hypospadias.
The Barcat balanic groove technique for the repair of distal hypospadias creates a neourethra with a ventral penile skin flap and a ventral glandular flap, both of which are based at the meatus. A series of 105 consecutive patients with distal hypospadias operated on by the same surgeon is presented. The primary complication was fistula formation in 15 per cent of the patients.
