Aim: Hypospadias is an anomaly in which urethral meatus is located more proximally. Itstreatment is surgery. Children undergoing hypospadias surgery are much more prone toemotional disorders than the other surgical procedures. In this study, it was aimed to evaluatethe emotional and temperament characteristics of the parents of children undergoinghypospadias surgery and normally circumcised.Material and Methods: All voluntary parents of children with hypospadias surgery and ofchildren with normal circumcision were included in this study. A semi-structuredsociodemographic data form, The Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris and SanDiego Autoquestionnaire (TEMPS-A), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) I-II, and BeckDepression Scale (BDS) were used to collect data from these parents.Results: There was no significant difference between the parents in terms of sociodemographicand clinical characteristics. When the parents of children with hypospadias and normalcircumcision were compared in terms of TEMPS-A temperament scale scores, STAI total andI-II subscale scores, and BDS scores, no statistically significant difference was found.Conclusion: Hypospadias is a complex biological development defect. In men who underwenthypospadias surgery, sexual dysfunctions that develop in further period usually develop onpsychological grounds. Parents' anxiety levels should be taken into consideration and everyoneshould act together in management process of hypospadias, operation of which is planned inearly period and may have many effects in the future. We think that the study we have donewith parents in this area may guide to other studies.
