I read the article recently published in the Journal of Pediatric Urology and titled
“Ano-Scrotal Distance (ASD); Is it a marker for the severity of chordee?” [
[1]
]. This study described the correlation between Ano Scrotal Distance (ASD) and the
severity of hypospadias as depicted by both meatal position and the degree of curvature
in a large cohort of patients.- Wirmer J.
