[Surgical treatment of complete epispadias in children].

The operative treatment was used in 46 children with total epispadia. In 37 patients operations were made by the Derzhavin method (in eight of them it was one-step plasty of the ureter and penis with local tissues), in 9 patients the operations were made after Savostitski--Young. Long-term results were observed in 38 patients. Good long-term results were obtained in 25 patients (22 following the Derzhavin operation, 3 following the Savostitski--Young operations). The Derzhavin operation is considered to give better results when performed at the age of 6-7 years.
