The purpose of the second edition of Hypospadiology is stated in the title, Repairing Hypospadias Better. Towards that end, every chapter from the first edition has been rewritten and 14 new chapters added - reflecting the continuing evolution of hypospadias surgery towards making the abnormal anatomy of this birth defect into the normal anatomy of the penis.

Repairing hypospadias is one of the greatest challenges in reconstructive surgery, and every surgeon who undertakes this work struggles to straighten the associated penile curvature, rearrange the misaligned shaft skin, and extend the urethral meatus to its normal location at the tip of the glans - and to achieve all these with a minimum of complications while leaving behind no scars to show that a repair was done. The Second Edition of Hypospadiology: Repairing Hypospadias Better provides the most comprehensive and authoritative resource available, written by two world-renowned experts who describe the most successful operations step-by-step.

Since most complications are caused by technical errors, Hypospadiology, 2nd Edition also emphasizes how to avoid those mistakes. Because failed repairs and reoperations decrease tissue vascularity, the textbook describes hyperbaric oxygen therapy to improve wound healing. And because this birth defect affects more than the patient, a new chapter highlights its impact on parents and the entire family.

Every hypospadias surgeon will benefit from these and many other lessons derived from the authors' extensive surgical experience and their well-known commitment to improving their own results, all summarized in Hypospadiology: Repairing Hypospadias Better.

Warren Snodgrass, MD, and Nicol Bush, MD, MCS are co-founders of the Hypospadias Specialty Center, providing care to patients of all ages with this condition. They are the most published authors in the history of hypospadias surgery. They are also the originators of TIP for distal and STAC for proximal hypospadias repair, as well as the 3 corporotomies to straighten ventral curvature. In addition, they have encouraged surgeons to objectively measure penile curvature, incorporate hyperbaric oxygen therapy, assess their own work, and specialize hypospadias repair as means to help repair hypospadias better.
