ABSTRACT
Background: Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital
malformations. Few studies have explored the association of age at time
of surgery and the occurrence of complications after hypospadias repair.
Objective: Determine whether age at hypospadias repair is a risk factor
for development of complications.
Methods: Retrospective cohort of patients with hypospadias repair in
one surgical time. The data included: age, type of hypospadias, surgical
technique and complications presented. The monitoring was conducted
for six months after the surgery. Patients were classified according to
age
group A less than 24 months, group B from 24 to 48 months and
group C over 48 months. We calculated the relative risk and confidence
intervals of 95%.
Results: 170 patients were included in the analysis. The incidence of
complications was 24.1%, the most frequent complication was urethrocutaneous
fistula (52.2%). The median age in months of the complication
group was 40.8 (6-196), whereas in the group without complications
was 37.5 (6-196). Age was not associated with an increased risk for
complications, group B (RR= 0.975 [95% CI 0.374-2.547]), and group C
(RR= 0.966 [95% CI 0.386-2.416]) when compared with group A.
Conclusions: Age at time of surgery for hypospadias correction in one
phase is not associated with complications.
