Hypospadias cripples can be defined as patients with remaining functional complications after previous hypospadias repair. A retrospective follow-up study was performed on the long-term results of a group of 94 patients disabled by hypospadias. The records of 94 patients showed that they presented with the following problems: 82 had a major meatal dystopia (87 percent), 43 (46 percent) had residual curvature of the penile body, 19 (20 percent) showed meatal stenosis, and only 5 (5 percent) had one or more fistulas. The techniques used to solve these problems were circumferential advancement of penile skin, dorsal transposition flap of preputial skin, distally based transposition flap of penile skin, and full-thickness skin graft. Between one and nine operations were needed to achieve the desired result (mean and median of two operations). The complications after these procedures were 11 fistulas in nine patients, meatal stenosis caused by tight scarring in six patients, and a residual curvature after an orthoplasty that had to be released once before a urethroplasty could be performed. Forty-three men were seen at long-term follow-up (range, 2 to 25 years; mean, 12 years). Functional complaints that were seen included spraying at micturition (5 patients, 12 percent), dribbling (6 patients, 14 percent), and deviation of urinary stream (7 patients, 16 percent). No patients complained of painful miction, hesitation, or straining. At physical examination, 4 patients had a residual curvature (three of which were mild without functional problems), 5 had a skin surplus, 1 presented with a fistula after an operation in another hospital, and 13 had a penile torsion. Only 6 patients had a penile torsion greater than 10 degrees, which was evenly distributed to the left and right. There was no correlation between any functional complaint and the presence of a physical abnormality.
