When is it appropriate to operate for a postoperative urinary fistula after pediatric hypospadias?

Treatment of urinary fistulas after hypospadias usually needs to be done about six months after the last surgery, mainly waiting for the scar tissue to soften after the surgery. Better conditions can also be considered about 3 months after the surgery, but it depends on the case. Suburethral cleft surgery performed at the age of 10 has a certain impact on the child’s psychology, both in terms of the deformity itself and the surgical trauma, and may even affect the sexual psychology as well as the sexual function, requiring some work on the child’s psychological adjustment.
