Abstract
While many urethrocutaneous fistulas develop immediately following hypospadias repair, almost a quarter present well beyond the typical followup of many urologists. These findings suggest that reported rates of urethrocutaneous fistula may be underestimated and longer followup may be warranted. Late recurrence of urethrocutaneous fistula is rare with 5.2% seen at more than 1 year, suggesting that more limited followup may be appropriate in these patients.
