    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To provide ideal materials for resurfacing penile ventral wounds. METHODS: For hypospadias with scrotal fissure and penile-scrotal transposition, scrotal skin flaps based on lateral branches of posterior scrotal arteries were utilized to resurface penile ventral wounds when urethral reconstruction were finished. RESULTS: 9 cases of hypospadias of different types have been treated with the method mentioned above. All flaps survived and good results achieved. CONCLUSION: For hypospadias with scrotal fissure and penile-scrotal transposition, scrotal skin flaps pedicled on lateral branches of posterior scrotal arteries can not only resurface penile ventral wounds, but also correct scrotal fissure and penile-scrotal transposition simultaneously.
