Urinary function after Snodgrass repair of distal hypospadias: comparison with the Mathieu repair

Purpose To evaluate urinary function in patients with distal hypospadias undergoing repair by the tubularized incised-plate urethroplasty (TIP or Snodgrass), compare the results with those in patients treated by the Mathieu technique, and show the potential issues inherent to the evaluation of such results.
