ABSTRACT

Ventral penile curvature or chordee is common in hypospadias but is much less frequent when the meatus is orthotopic. It rarely presents in isolated form and as such represents approximately 4-10% of chordee cases. Etiology and management of this condition continues to be a subject of debate in the literature.
