Trial summary

Hypospadias is a condition in which the location of the urethral meatus is on the ventral aspect of the penis. Hypospadias is the most common congenital anomaly of urogenital organs in boys, with an incidence of approximately 1 in 250 newborns. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Applying of Urethral Advancement, Glanuloplasty and Preputioplasty Technique for More Proximal Degrees of Hypospadias. Selective Criteria and a Modified Technique

Hypospadias is a condition in which the location of the urethral meatus is on the ventral aspect of the penis.

Hypospadias is the most common congenital anomaly of urogenital organs in boys, with an incidence of approximately 1 in 250 newborns. Recently, case selection has been advised to avoid possible complications and limitations [1]. The meatal advancement and glanuloplasty (MAGPI) procedure was first described in 1981 for the repair of distal hypospadias. An excellent surgical result requires careful case selection, avoiding cases with thin or rigid ventral para-meatal skin or a meatus too proximal or too wide. The glans wrap to support the advanced ventral urethral wall requires a solid tissue approximation in two layers to prevent regression of the meatus. Meatal stenosis can be avoided by assuring an adequate dorsal Heineke- Mikulicz tissue rearrangement and making an incision from within the urethral meatus well distally into the urethral groove. . The overall success rate with the MAGPI procedure suggests that it should continue to be used in the repair of distal hypospadias [2]. The advantage of Urethral advancement, Glanuloplasty, and Preputioplasty \" URAGPI\" versus MAGPI Is that A) Applicability to almost any type of distal hypospadias regardless of the severity of glanular ventriflexion.

  1. Normal appearance of the penis. C) Good functional results.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing URAGPI technique in people with Hypospadias, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assessment of the patient immediately after removal of the catheter at the 7th day and after 3 weeks (time frame: 3 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jan 2020.
