Summary— Results and complications are reported in 67 boys who underwent a modified MAGPI procedure for hypospadias between 1981 and 1986. Excellent cosmetic and functional results were achieved in 91% of the patients. Some degree of chordee can be corrected by this procedure but severe degrees of chordee were associated with an increased complication rate.
