Abstract

The optimal dressing is still unclear, despite hypospadias being one of the most prevalent surgical operations. Children’s dressing for hypospadias surgery was searched on PubMed as “dressing for hypospadias,” “postoperative dressing for pediatric hypospadias,” and “dressing AND hypospadias.” Experimental studies, animal studies, reviews, letters, and repetitive publications were excluded from the study. By evaluating these reviewed publications, factors affecting hypospadias dressing, such as surgeon, country, dressing type, characteristics, and why it is preferred, will be revealed. As a result, 17 articles were examined, and the advantages of each were established by examining the results. The type of hypospadias, the surgeon’s choice, and its ease of removal stand out as the crucial factors in treating hypospadias in children, along with the degree of development of the nation.
