Abstract
We used the Arap hypospadias repair in 31 patients with distal hypospadias with considerable success, achieving an excellent result in 93 per cent of our patients. Improved cosmesis, extension of the scope of the problems that can be addressed with this repair (including treatment of a distal urethrocutaneous fistula) and the ease with which the Arap procedure can be performed are the advantages that this operation has over other 1-stage distal hypospadias repairs.
