Don’t you need surgery for coronal hypospadias?

Hypospadias of the pericoronal groove type generally does not require surgical treatment unless the patient has a curved penile deformity that prevents adequate erection, in which case surgery is required to straighten the curved penis for treatment without moving the urethra. Keeping the urethra in the coronal sulcus means that normal urination requirements can be achieved. Even in other types of hypospadias, such as perineal hypospadias or hypospadias of the penis body. The opening of the urethra is only made to be located in the coronal sulcus through surgery, and not directly to the urethral opening in the middle of the glans, because it is possible to stand and urinate in the position of the coronal sulcus of the urethra, and there is no squatting to urinate. Therefore, it is sufficient to achieve the purpose of the patient being able to stand to urinate and straighten the penis. If a coronal hypospadias is operated on, there may also be side injuries, including the risk of urethral stricture or urinary leakage. Therefore, surgery is generally not needed for hypospadias from the coronal sulcus, and for other types of hypospadias, it is sufficient to bring the urethra to the coronal sulcus, and it is not necessary to force it to be right at the opening of the glans.
