Genomic copy number variation association study in Caucasian patients with nonsyndromic cryptorchidism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Copy number variation (CNV) is a potential contributing factor to many genetic diseases. Here we investigated the potential association of CNV with nonsyndromic cryptorchidism, the most common male congenital genitourinary defect, in a Caucasian ...

Case Report: Association of Ocular Colobomas With a Novel Missense Variant in CDC42, a Member of the Rho Family of Small GTPases

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
We report a 2‐year‐old male with clinical features of Takenouchi‐Kosaki syndrome, bilateral colobomas, and a de novo, likely pathogenic missense variant in CDC42. Supportive evidence includes a Cdc42 conditional knock‐out mouse model with colobomas.

Langerhans cells in hypospadias: an analysis of Langerin (CD207) and HLA-DR on epidermal sheets and full thickness skin sections

open access: yesBMC Urology, 2019
Background Hypospadias are among the most common genital malformations. Langerhans Cells (LCs) play a pivotal role in HIV and HPV infection. The migration of LC precursors to skin coincides with the embryonic period of hypospadias development and genetic

Publication Bias in Randomized Controlled Trials of Hypospadias Surgical Repair: A Systematic Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Hypospadias is a common congenital condition in males that has been subject to extensive research. However, publication bias can distort the scientific literature and impact clinical decision‐making. This review evaluates publication bias in hypospadias research and emphasizes the need for balanced reporting to improve clinical ...

Unusual complication of prolonged indwelling urinary catheter - iatrogenic hypospadias

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2016
Long-time urethral catheterization may be responsible for various complications such as urethral stricture, urethral fracture, urinary tract infections, and hypospadias.

Complex epithelial remodeling underlie the fusion event in early fetal development of the human penile urethra. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We recently described a two-step process of urethral plate canalization and urethral fold fusion to form the human penile urethra. Canalization ("opening zipper") opens the solid urethral plate into a groove, and fusion ("closing zipper") closes the ...

Appraisal of Clinical and Anthropometric Variables as Risk Factors for Urethroplasty Complication in Primary Hypospadias

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim We assessed multiple clinical and anthropometric risk factors for urethroplasty complications requiring ancillary procedures following primary hypospadias repair. Methods It is a prospective cohort study of boys undergoing primary hypospadias repair comparing the group of patients with urethroplasty complication (UC) who required ancillary
