“…This is an extrapolation of the understanding gained from the vesicoureteric junction wherein the length and obliquity of the intravesical ureter are important. [ 25 ] Sometimes, the length of the UCF tract is too brief for several reasons, (a) the penis lacks subcutaneous tissue, (b) the spongiosum may be deficient in hypospadias, and (c) the spongiosum may have dehisced too as an integral component of the infective (or other) processes leading to the formation of UCF. The length of the UCF tract may be increased by 1–2 mm by increasing the diameter of the incision around the UCF to include adjacent skin alongwith the UCF tract in order to augment the passive flap-valve mechanism.…”
