What is the incidence rate of pediatric hypospadias? What impacts can hypospadias have on a child? Besides surgical treatment, are there other treatment methods available?

Answers

Hypospadias is a congenital developmental defect that can typically be corrected through surgery. The surgery not only repairs the urethral structure but also reduces the degree of penile curvature, aiding in the child’s normal development. Early surgery can reduce psychological stress and accelerate recovery. However, surgery is not always successful in one attempt, and sometimes multiple surgeries may be required.
