Abstract
Preoperative psychological counseling and discussion with other parents or patients were helpful. We no longer use free skin grafts and/or bladder mucosa for urethral substitution. Waterproofing the urethral tube was performed using either a dartos or tunica vaginalis flap. When the quality of the tissues was poor or severely scarred a 2-stage repair was performed. When resurfacing the penis local skin flaps may be insufficient or unreliable, and rotation of scrotal skin flaps or burial of the penis in the scrotum (Cecil-Culp) offers dependable skin coverage.
