PURPOSE: We present a multicenter experience using the @entity7890 technique to determine if satisfactory results could be obtained by various pediatric urologists at multiple centers using the same technique to repair @entity7890 . This particular technique involves complete disassembly of the penis into 2 separate hemicorporeal glandular bodies and a separate urethral plate, and relies on the unique blood supply to the epispadiac phallus. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 17 @entity1 11 months to 21 years old underwent the Mitchell procedure for @entity7890 at 4 institutions by 6 different surgeons between 1994 and 1996. One @entity1 in this group had undergone @entity7890 repair, which had failed. RESULTS: At followup (mean 13.5 months) 3 @entity1 had pinpoint penopubic fistulas, which resolved spontaneously in 2. The 21-year-old @entity1 had a complete wound dehiscence. All @entity1 with intact repairs have straight erections, orthotopic meatus and satisfactory appearances. There were 15 @entity1 with a conical glans appearance and 1 exhibiting @entity2785 . There was 1 episode of postoperative @entity2885 . CONCLUSIONS: The Mitchell technique for repair of @entity7890 is reproducible and successful in the hands of pediatric urologists from different centers. Chordee is reliably corrected, erectile function preserved, the urethra ventrally situated in an anatomically precise fashion and satisfactory cosmesis achieved.
