Do any of these symptoms apply to you?

If any of these situations feel familiar, a consultation could be the right first step.

  • Urinary opening: "I notice that the opening where my child urinates is not at the tip of the penis, but lower down."
  • Curvature: "My child's penis seems to curve downwards when he has an erection or when he urinates."
  • Foreskin shape: "My child's foreskin does not completely cover the glans; it looks like an 'incomplete hood'."
  • Difficulty urinating: "My child has to sit down to urinate, or the stream isn't straight and splashes a lot."
  • Aesthetic concern: "I'm worried about how this might affect my child's confidence in the future."
  • Recent diagnosis: "We were told my child has hypospadias and we are looking for options."

Frequently asked questions

How long does the hypospadias treatment process take?
The hypospadias treatment process involves surgery and a recovery period. The surgery itself can last several hours, depending on complexity. Post-operative follow-up extends over several months to ensure proper healing and favorable outcomes.
Could you give me an idea of the costs for hypospadias surgery and if there are financing options?
The cost of hypospadias surgery varies depending on the complexity of the case and specific requirements. I will provide a detailed budget after the initial assessment. Regarding financing, we can explore available options with your health insurance or payment plans during the consultation.
What possible side effects or risks should I consider with hypospadias surgery?
As with any surgical procedure, there are possible side effects such as swelling, bruising, or mild initial discomfort. There may also be risks of infection or the need for surgical touch-up in some cases, although these are rare situations. I always strive to minimize these risks with meticulous care.
What should I expect during my child's first consultation about hypospadias?
In the first consultation, my goal is to get to know your child and your family. I will review their medical history, perform a detailed physical examination, and listen to all your concerns. I will explain the condition of hypospadias, answer your questions, and together we will define the next steps.
Are there situations where hypospadias surgery is not recommended for my child?
Hypospadias surgery is usually the primary treatment. However, in some cases, certain pre-existing medical conditions or the child's age may require a deeper evaluation or postponing the procedure. I always prioritize your child's safety and well-being in decision-making.
Are there alternatives to surgery to correct hypospadias?
For the correction of hypospadias, surgery is generally the most recommended and effective treatment to restore function and appearance. There are no non-surgical treatments that can correct the anomalous location of the urethra. My approach is to offer the best surgical solution tailored to each little patient.
