Best Hypospadias Treatment in Delhi

Hypospadias is a condition where the meatus (urinary opening) is not located at the tip of the penis, affecting up to one in every 200 boys. Normally, the meatus is near the tip (distal position), but in some cases, it may be found along the penile shaft, at the base, or within the scrotum (proximal position). The only treatment for this condition is hypospadias surgery.

Over 80% of cases involve distal hypospadias, while around 15% have “chordee,” where the penis curves slightly downward. When the meatus is positioned further down the shaft, more than 50% of patients experience curvature. Surgery is the standard treatment, and the cost of hypospadias surgery varies based on factors like location and severity. This also applies to hypospadias surgery costs in Delhi

Symptoms of Hypospadias

In hypospadias, the urethral meatus is located on the underside of the penis instead of the tip. In most cases, it is found within the head of the penis. Less commonly, the opening may be located at the center or base of the penis, and in rare cases, it can be beneath or within the scrotum.

The common signs and symptoms of hypospadias are:

  • Downward curved penis (chordee).
  • The urethral opening is located in other areas than the tip of the penis.
  • Penis has a hooded appearance due to its top half being covered by the foreskin.
  • Abnormal spraying at the time of urination.

One can only treat this condition by opting for hypospadias surgery.

Causes of Hypospadias

Hypospadias is a congenital condition that develops while the baby is in the womb. It occurs when the tissue on the underside of the penis does not fully close, leading to a shortened urethral passage. In most cases, the foreskin does not fully cover the glans, resulting in excess foreskin on the top of the penis but not the underside.

This condition is not caused by parental negligence before or during pregnancy. However, research suggests that hypospadias may run in families, making it more common in boys whose father or male sibling had the condition. Hypospadias can be treated with appropriate medical intervention.

What Happens if Hypospadias is Not Treated?

The risk factors for hypospadias include:

  • Family History: Infants with a family history of hypospadias are more likely to develop the condition.
  • Genetics: Certain gene variations may disrupt hormone levels, affecting the development of male genitalia.
  • Maternal Age Over 35: Studies suggest a higher risk in male infants born to mothers older than 35.
  • Exposure to Certain Substances: Possible links exist between hypospadias and maternal exposure to hormones, industrial chemicals, or pesticides during pregnancy.

Hypospadias Treatment Options

Hypospadias can only be treated through surgery, ideally performed between 6 to 15 months of age to minimize psychological effects.

At SCI Hospital, hypospadias surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, minimizing separation from parents and making the procedure more affordable. The surgery takes one to three hours and aims to straighten the penis while positioning the urethral opening near the tip. This ensures a controlled urine stream, prevents pain during intercourse later in life, and gives the penis a normal appearance.

Reconstructive surgery is performed under general anesthesia while the child is asleep. In most cases, the child is admitted and discharged on the same day. However, in more complex cases, a catheter is left in the bladder to drain urine for about 7 to 10 days to support healing.

FAQs

Though one can resume normal urine passing in 2-3 weeks, it may take up to 2-3 months for the penis skin to completely heal.

After hypospadias treatment, babies are kept in double diapers until the catheter is removed. If the child is older than 6-7 years old, diapers may be difficult to maintain; therefore, doctors prefer to use a urine bag for urine drainage.

Each child's tolerance level varies, but the most discomfort is usually felt in the first two to three days following hypospadias repair. However, pain medication is provided and fortunately, young babies heal quickly.

Depending on the severity of hypospadias, hypospadias repair may affect a male's penis size.

This could range from two weeks for simpler procedures to three weeks for more complicated procedures.

For three weeks, older boys should refrain from participating in contact sports, riding bicycles, straddling any toys, or wrestling. Keep your child home from preschool or daycare for the first week following surgery. More patient-specific instructions can be provided by your doctor.
