the aim is to study the results of simple modification of classic Mathieu urethroplasty to increase the scope of cases candidates for that procedure.
background: Distal hypospadias repair is one of most frequent surgical interventions in pediatric age group. Successful hypospadias repair should provide a functional penis and good cosmesis. Mathieu urethroplasty is one of the most popular techniques used. Authors aimed at performing a modification that expanded the scope of indications and improved final cosmetic results of classic Mathieu urethroplasty. Methods: forty-three patients with distal hypospadias were operated by hybrid Mathieu urethroplasty (HMU) during the period from March 2012 to December 2020. Creation of the peri meatal based flap was performed as Mathieu disrobed. This was followed by developing of glanular wings. The additional step was deep incision of the urethral plate. Then, urethroplasty was performed. The catheter was left in place for one to three days.
