Abstract
Tissue deficiency accompanying failed hypospadias surgery makes further reconstruction difficult. Modified Cecil-Culp technique utilizes penile mobility to place the repair in a scrotal location for a short duration which helps to accomplish tension-free apposition using dartos and skin of the scrotum. A series of four cases is described where this technique proved beneficial despite adding a short subsequent procedure after a few months.
