Retrospective study of 124 patients (average age: 3.8 years) with midpenile hypospadias: 48,3% (60 children), distal penile: 45,9% (57) and coronal 5,6% (7), of which the 25.8% (16) presented ventral curvature and the 4,8% (6) resulting from the complication of another previous technique. All of them were operated according to Snodgrass' technique, removing the catheter between the 6^th and 7^th day in most of them. The global rate of complications was of 12%: 9 fistulae (7,2%) and 6 meatal stenosis (4,8%). Aesthetic result was satisfactory in all cases, getting glans covered by foreskin in 57,3%.
