Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Hypospadias is a common congenital anomaly with complex anatomy that influences surgical outcomes. Despite numerous surgical techniques, a lack of standardized preoperative assessment protocols and consensus on anatomical risk factors limits prediction of complications. This study aims to systematically evaluate key anatomical features identified in previous meta-analyses-such as urethral plate width and length, glans size, chordee severity, meatal position, and others-in a large, prospective multicenter cohort. The ultimate goal is to develop and validate an objective nomogram predicting the risk of postoperative complications, enabling individualized surgical planning and improved patient counseling.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Hypospadias (Age 1-12 years old)

This study includes a single prospective observational cohort of male pediatric patients aged 1 to 12 years undergoing primary surgical repair for hypospadias at participating tertiary pediatric urology centers. No experimental interventions are assigned by the study; instead, patients receive standard-of-care surgical techniques as determined by their treating surgeons. Detailed preoperative anatomical assessments and surgical procedure documentation are collected to evaluate the impact of anatomical variables and surgical approaches on postoperative complication rates. Subgroup analyses will be performed based on hypospadias severity (distal, midpenile, proximal) and the surgical technique utilized.

No interventions assigned to this group
