Ex-premature infant boys with hypospadias are similar in size to age-matched, ex-premature infant boys without hypospadias.
J Pediatr Urol. 2011; (5): 543-7
Studies have postulated that hypospadias, prematurity, and low birth weight are linked by defects in androgen signaling. To determine whether premature, hypospadiac boys are small and remain so, we compared their size at birth and at hypospadias repair to premature boys who underwent post-neonatal circumcision.
