TUBULARIZED INCISED PLATE PROXIMAL HYPOSPADIAS REPAIR: CONTINUED EVOLUTION AND EXTENDED APPLICATIONS By Warren Snodgrass MD and Nicol Corbin Bush MD, MCS TIP hypospadias repair is the most common surgery done for distal hypospadias around the world. Given the success of that operation, naturally the next question was how good would TIP be for proximal hypospadias… Read More »

TIP repair for proximal hypospadias is now rarely performed. Although it can repair hypospadias in a single surgery, high rates of problems such as recurrent curvature and strictures can occur. There are higher success rates when 2-stage graft (STAG) repairs are used in patients with hypospadias and penile curvature. Read publication here.
