Abstract

Background: Distal penile hypospadias is a common congenital anomaly in male children caused byincomplete development of the urethra, foreskin, and ventral penile tissues. Tubularized incised plate (TIP)urethroplasty is widely used for repair, typically employing a urethral stent to maintain neourethral patency and prevent urine leakage.
