Abstract：Objective To evaluate the efficacy of urethral plate inlay and urethral cavernous body forming in the repair of TIP hy pospadias.Methods From January 2015 to October 2016,16 children with primary distal hypospadias underwent urethral plate inlay and spongioplasty assisted TIP urethroplasty for hypospadias repair.The mean age was 4.3 (2 to 13) years.Plate width was 4 to 8 mm.The foreskin or buccal mucosa was inlaid in the urethral plate with a longitudinal incision during the operation.The forked cavernous body of the urethra was gathered on both sides of the urethral plate,covering the ventral urethra reconstruction.Results All patients were cured in one stage surgery,followed up for 6 to 24 months,for an average of 10 months.No urinary fistula and urethral stricture occurred.Except for one case of urethral retraction,all other patients had crack-like urethral openings in the front,no penile curvature,and good postoperative appearance.Conclusion Urethral plate inlay and urethral cavernous body forming can reduce the urethral stricture and urinary fistula,and is effective for hypospadias repair.
