Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Hypospadias is a common congenital urogenital anomaly with a multifactorial etiology. This study aims to identify rare genetic variants associated with hypospadias in a Taiwanese cohort using whole-exome sequencing (WES) and assess their correlation with clinical phenotypes and surgical outcomes. METHODS: A cohort of 55 Taiwanese male patients diagnosed with hypospadias, chordee and buried penis was...
