Abstract

Introduction  

Pre-penile scrotum (also referred to as Penoscrotal transposition) represents a wide spectrum of abnormality varying from mild to severe. It is usually associated with proximal hypospadias and chordee. [Refer Figures 1-4].

Aim

To analyse the timing of surgery and post operative outcome of Penoscrotal transposition procedure for pre penile scrotum in Hypospadias. The postoperative complications when prepenile scrotum was corrected as a primary procedure/secondary procedure were also compared.

Materials and Methods

20 patients who underwent the Glenn - Anderson Penoscrotal transposition correction during the period of January 2011 to January 2016. Age group ranged from 18 months to 11 years.

Nine patients underwent the surgery as a primary procedure while 11 other patients underwent the surgery after previous procedures performed elsewhere.
