Urology: What We Treat

The division manages a full range of surgical repair for minor and complex degrees of hypospadias, as well as reoperation to correct a failed surgery performed elsewhere. Innovative research derived from the hospital's association with UT Southwestern affords the physicians at Children's a unique understanding of, and leading-edge care techniques for, this common condition.
