Abstract

A standard grading system of hypospadias is important for family counseling, surgical planning, and self/peer assessment of results and complications. Anatomical classifications based on meatal location have been commonly used as an indicator. Classification after chordee release and using the division level of corpus spongiosum are important recent contributions. Duckett classified hypospadias according to meatal location after release of curvature into anterior, middle, and posterior hypospadias. Orkiszewski used pubic bones as a reference. GMS Score scaled the anomaly based on the properties of Glans, location of Meatus, and degree of Chordee. The Hypospadias International Society (HIS) recommends the MCGU Score incorporating Meatal location, Chordee, Glans size, and the Urethral plate quality.
