Voiding function was studied after repair of anterior hypospadias in 44 boys using Duckett's technique of meatoplasty and glanuloplasty. Assessment of the urinary stream was done in 2 ways. At least 6 weeks postoperatively a uroflow measurement using a DISA rotating disk machine was done. Peak flow was compared to previously prepared normal values in a large group of normal boys. Then, a high speed picture of the stream was taken using electronic video photography at the time of peak flow. Of the boys 42 had normal flow rates and 40 had acceptable stream patterns. The only complication was meatal stenosis in 2 cases. There were no fistulas. Although the primary indication for correction of anterior hypospadias is cosmetic, it is essential that function not be sacrificed to achieve this end. This study indicates that voiding function is maintained after hypospadias repair with meatoplasty and glanuloplasty.
