Aims of this study are to present treatment of these complications and to highlight their impact on patients' life. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between March 2003 and May 2017, 95 patients, aged 6.5 to 40 years (mean 19) underwent surgical repair for non-urethral complications after hypospadias repair in childhood: glans deformity (36), residual curvature (46) and trapped penis (32). Some patients had two or more complications at the time of corrective surgery. Mean period after first hypospadias repair was 13.6 years. Glans repair was performed in 29 patients by creation of conically shaped glans with wide glans wings creation, while in 7 cases "double-faced" skin flap was used to enlarge small and deformed glans. Residual curvature was repaired by tunica plication in all cases, while in 25 cases additional urethral reconstruction was needed. Trapped penis was repaired using vascularized genital skin flaps or free skin grafts as one or two stage repair. RESULTS Mean follow-up was 64 months (ranged 5–174 months). One-stage surgery repair was successful in 78 patients, while 17 patients required additional surgery. Twelve patients underwent two-stage penile skin reconstruction due to lack of genital skin and five patients underwent repeated correction of the penile curvature due to its late onset. CONCLUSIONS Non-urethral complications after hypospadias repair carry a risk of repeated surgeries and may lead to severe sexual and psychological dysfunction. Active surgical treatment should enable full sexual functionality. Long-term follow-up of these patients should be extended until beginning of their sexual activity and even in their early adulthood.
