Use of an inner preputial free graft to extend the indications of Snodgrass hypospadias repair (Snodgraft).

Tubularized incised plate (tip) urethroplasty or Snodgrass repair has become the most commonly used procedure for distal hypospadias repair. However, where the urethral plate is narrow or shallow, the good results may be compromised. We present our experience of using a small inner preputial graft to deepen and widen the urethral plate (Snodgraft). This procedure has certainly reduced the number of two-stage hypospadias repairs in patients who lack a urethral groove or have a small glans. The cosmetic and functional results are excellent.
