Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Severe penile torsion of 180° associated with hypospadias is a rare entity. Knowledge of penile anatomy and pathology are necessary as the diagnosis could be missed.
CASE PRESENTATION
We report a case of severe 180° penile torsion with distal hypospadias that was mistaken for an epispadias which was corrected with surgery.
CONCLUSION
Tubularized incised plate urethroplasty and dartos flap rotation provided satisfactory result for this association.
