How is Hypospadias Single Stage Repair performed? Before, during and after.
The procedure starts with an intravenous fluid injection through the arm or legs and local or generalised anaesthesia — as the doctor deems fit. It makes the child feel relaxed and comfortable.
The child is under anaesthesia. The urologist performs the surgery to straighten the penis and reposition the urethra on the top of the penis.
The child is under anaesthesia, and he can go home on the same day. The doctor will prescribe painkillers and antibiotics (to avoid infection at the operated site) and ease post-op pain.
Call the doctor immediately if the following symptoms are noticed in the child after the surgery:
- Fever
- Difficulty in urination
- Infection or pus formation
- Bleeding
- Discolouration at the tip of the penis
