title: [Current approach to hypospadias in children].
abstract: Hypospadias surgery has dramatically changed over the last 15 years with a new anatomical approach of the ventral penile anomalies and new techniques of repair. The description of the hypoplasia of the tissues forming the ventral aspect of the penis (ventral radius of the penis) beyond the division of the corpus spongiosum, and the concept of urethral plate are the two key-elements to select the most appropriate technique of reconstruction. These modern concepts and the various surgical techniques used are reported here with their results.
