This advanced surgical workshop provided a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of modern strategies in the management and reconstruction of complex hypospadias in children. The program combined evidence-based lectures, interactive case discussions, and hands-on surgical demonstrations conducted by expert pediatric urologists and reconstructive surgeons.
Key topics included the anatomical assessment of hypospadias variants, decision-making in primary versus reoperative cases, graft and flap selection, management of complications such as fistula and chordee, and long-term functional and cosmetic outcomes. Participants gained practical insights into innovative surgical techniques, including staged urethroplasty, preputial and buccal mucosal grafting, and tissue engineering trends.
The workshop emphasized individualized patient-centered approaches, advances in magnification and suture materials, and postoperative care optimization to enhance outcomes and reduce complication rates. By the end of the course, attendees were equipped with updated knowledge and refined technical skills applicable to challenging reconstructive scenarios in pediatric hypospadias surgery.
