• ABSTRACT
    • Hypospadias is a common congenital problem in boys. Neonatal recognition is essential, and circumcision must be avoided. Although there is no increase in risk of other genitourinary anomalies, hypospadias, when associated with cryptorchidism, warrants further evaluation to exclude an intersex disorder. Surgical reconstruction ideally should be performed when the child is between six and nine months of age.
