Hypospadias, a failure of the correct formation of the penis, is the second-most common birth defect, occurring in around 1% of boys. It causes distress to both newborn and parents, requiring surgical intervention, and is a burden of cost and is a risk to the child. Furthermore, it is frequently associated with other abnormalities. We have a novel model in which we can induce penis abnormalities and define the link between hormonal exposures and defective penis differentiation.

尿道下裂，阴茎的正确形成失败，是第二常见的出生缺陷，发生在大约1%的男孩身上。它对新生儿和父母都造成痛苦，需要手术干预，并且是一种费用负担，对儿童也是一种风险。此外，它经常与其他异常有关。我们有一个新的模型，我们可以诱导阴茎异常，并确定激素暴露和阴茎分化缺陷之间的联系。
