Abstract
The results of 12 years' experience in the surgical treatment of hypospadias fistula are presented. Overall, there was a success rate of approximately 50% for each attempt at surgical closure of a fistula. The chances of success were not significantly influenced by the number of previous surgical procedures. The best results were obtained with fistulae on the shaft of the penis which were closed with mucosal inversion and advancement of a skin flap over the fistula.Keywords
