[The surgical treatment of distal hypospadias].
Distal hypospadias is one of the most common conditions encountered by the pediatric urologist. For many years it was considered to be a non-surgical pathology, since attempts to correct this condition was cosmetically unsatisfactory and more problems were caused rather than resolved. Over the last 15 years, early in the 80's, John Duckett rekindled the interest in this pathology whose treatment had advanced very little since the era of Mathieu. This article is a posthumous tribute to my mentor, John W. Duckett, who contributed considerably to the advancement of surgical treatment of hypospadias.
