Abstract
Selecting a treatment method for proximal hypospadias in children remains challenging. This systematic review compares the outcomes of treating proximal hypospadias with the Duckett and Bracka techniques. Literature sources published between 2008 and 2023 were searched through PubMed, Google Scholar, and eLibrary using the following keywords in English: “proximal hypospadias,” “repair OR urethroplasty,” and “outcomes OR complications.” For Russian-language sources, the keywords were “proximal hypospadias,” “urethroplasty,” “complications,” “Duckett operation,” and “Bracka operation,” After screening, four full-text articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in this review. Data from 385 patients was analyzed: 218 underwent Duckett repair and 167 underwent Bracka repair. The overall complication rate in the postoperative period was 31.11% and 10.18% for Duckett and Bracka operation, respectively. No study has been performed at a high methodological level. Currently, studies comparing single-stage and staged surgeries for proximal hypospadias are lacking. It is crucial to conduct multicenter or comparative studies that involve closer collaboration between clinics, include a larger number of patients, and have a longer followup period.
