J Pediatr Surg. 1981 Dec;16(6):806-11. doi: 10.1016/s0022-3468(81)80823-8.

Abstract

A one stage repair is presented for mild hypospadias with or without chordee, entailing a local flap of shaft skin rotated forward to the tip of the glans and tubularized. The two halves of the glans penis are brought together to enclose the neourethra. This procedure results in a normal appearing penis. In 50 cases complications were limited to two meatal stenoses. There were no fistulas. This procedure is not used in cases with greater than minimal deformity.
