Paediatric surgical registrars can be safely supervised to have substantial involvement in proximal and distal hypospadias repair, without compromising the duration or outcomes of surgery. We hope that allowing more registrar involvement can lead to faster acquisition of surgical skills, whilst remaining under the safety of senior supervision. Increasing opportunities for those with an aptitude for hypospadias repair can equip them with skills and confidence for entering fellowship training.
