Results of the one-stage proximal hypospadias repair with modified Koyanagi technique: A prospective cohort study in a single Vietnam centre.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Proximal hypospadias is the most severe type of hypospadias. Our approach to Koyanagi technique for proximal hypospadias aims to improve the blood supply to the neourethral flaps and reduce meatal complications.
