Abstract

The role of dressing in hypospadias surgery remains controversial. Dressing over closed wounds can be removed on the third or fourth day. Wet dressing must be removed or changed. Dry wound is a clean wound. In hypospadias surgery, the main purpose of a dressing is to immobilize the penis, minimize edema, and prevent hematoma formation and reduce contamination.
