Modified prepuce unfurling for buried penis: A report of 12 years of experience
Background/Objective: About 10 years ago, we started to correct buried penis using the technique of modified prepuce unfurling. We have made modifications in the years since our preliminary results were reported in 2002.

Transcriptomic Profiling and Histological Validation of Preputial Fibrosis in Hypospadias [PDF]
Background: Hypospadias is often associated with abnormal prepuce development. Investigating the differences between the inner prepuce of hypospadias patients and normal controls at the transcriptomic level and histological characteristics helps to ...

Comparison of Microvessel Density and Growth Factor Levels Between Inner and Outer Prepuce in Distal Hypospadias* [PDF]
Objective: Preputial flaps are frequently used in hypospadias repair, but the heal ing potential of preputial tissue remains a concern. This study aimed to evaluate the microvessel density (MVD) and growth factor receptor levels (VEGFR and TGF-!R) in ...

Development of the human prepuce and its innervation [PDF]
Development of the human prepuce was studied over the course of 9-17 weeks of gestation in 30 specimens. Scanning electron microscopy revealed subtle surface features that were associated with preputial development, namely the appearance of epidermal ...

Downregulated androgen receptor expression in preputial tissues of children with hypospadias [PDF]
PurposeTo resolve conflicting evidence on androgen receptor (AR) expression in hypospadias, we compared preputial AR levels between affected children and controls.MethodsForty patients with isolated hypospadias (age 2.9 ± 0.79 years, range 1.6–5.2 years)
