Ninety cases of hypospadias were operated in the Department of Paediatric Surgery, Chandka Medical College, Larkana, from January 1993 to December 1997. The most common age group was between 1-5 years (63.3%) and the most common variety of hypospadias was penile (68.8%). Chordee was present in 76 patients (84.5%) and other associated anomalies were present in 8 patients (9%). Family history of hypospadias was present in 3 patients (3.3%). Patients without chordee were selected for single stage repair and those with chordee were selected for two stage Byar`s method of repair. Chordee was corrected in 76 cases, out of which 37 patients are waiting for urethroplasty. Urethroplasty has been done in 53 patients; single stage urethroplasty in 16 patients and two stage Byar`s urethroplasty in 37 patients. Overall complication rate of urethroplasty was 36%. Fistula was the most common complication (28.3%). Byar`s method of hypospadias repair was found most satisfactory and adaptable to all degrees of hypospadias.
