This is a prospective study of two cases of hypospadias in identical twins with the same location and the same symptomatology at Mali Gavardo Hospital. Hypospadias corresponds to hypoplasia of the tissues forming the ventral surface of the penis responsible for an ectopic abruption of the urethra. Its aetiology is multifactorial, the surgical management is adapted according to the anatomical location.the Mathieu urethroplasty technique was used in both patients, urine drainage was performed with 8fr silicone catheter for 5 days. Post-operative follow-up was marked by a skin fistula in one case on the fourth day with spontaneous closure on day 8. Material Methodology: This was a prospective study of two cases of hypospadias in identical twins at the Mali Gavardo Hospital. The following parameters were studied: age, reasons for consultation, physical examination, complementary examinations, surgical treatment and post-operative follow-up. Conclusion: Hypospadias is a congenital malformation in males, the frequency of which is increasing throughout the world, and should be treated from an early age. In our context, the presence of the same anatomical form and the same location in both twins is still very rare in the literature, hence the need to share our experience with others. The Mathieu technique remains the reference technique for the management of hypospadias.
