Warren Snodgrass is a pediatric urologist specializing in the repair of hypospadias, the second most common birth defect. In 1994 he described the tubularized incised plate (TIP) repair of hypospadias, which has become known as the Snodgrass repair and has become the most common approach to repairing most forms of hypospadias. Snodgrass is internationally known for his advocacy of evidence-based surgery, and was the editor of a textbook on pediatric urology. He is in private practice near Dallas, Texas. ==Biography== Snodgrass received his medical degree from the University of Texas Medical Branch in 1980, and then completed urology residency training at Baylor College of Medicine in 1986. He spent 12 years in private practice with his father, a urologist, in Lubbock, Texas.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.forestparkfrisco.com/physicians/warren-snodgrass/ )〕 He worked at Children's Medical Center until 2014, serving as the Chief of Pediatric Urology for 12 years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.parcurology.com/aboutus/#warren )〕 In 2014 Snodgrass and Nicol Bush left Children’s Medical Center to establish PARC Urology for complex hypospadias surgery in children and adults. 〔Snodgrass W: Tubularized incised plate urethroplasty for distal hypospadias. J Urol 151: 464, 1994〕 In 1994, Snodgrass published a description of the TIP repair of hypospadias. 〔Cook A, Khoury A, Neville C, Bagli D, Farhat W, and Pippi Salle J: A multicenter evaluation of technical preferences for primary hypospadias repair. J Urol 174: 2354, 2005〕 The technique has become popularly known as the Snodgrass urethroplasty or Snodgrass technique. The technique became widely employed across the world. In 2011, the Snodgrass technique was described as the dominant procedure for repairing most forms of hypospadias. Snodgrass has lectured and demonstrated surgical techniques internationally to pediatric urologists and surgeons. He established an annual live surgery course broadcast on the World Wide Web to teach surgeons performing hypospadias repair.〔(Live Surgery Workshop and Webinar for Hypospadias Repair ). Children's Medical Center. Retrieved April 5, 2015.〕 Snodgrass served as editor of a pediatric urology textbook, ''Pediatric Urology: Evidence for Optimal Patient Management''.〔(Warren T. Snodgrass, MD ). American Urological Association.〕 In addition to lecturing and teaching, Snodgrass has one of the largest hypospadias centers in the United States. His hypospadias center utilizes a surgical team approach with two specialists who do these surgeries very frequently. Snodgrass also teaches evidence based urology at his hypospadias center for excellence where other physicians come from all over the world to learn reconstructive genital operations through academic observations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.parcurology.com/aboutus/#warren )〕 Snodgrass published a book describing the fall of Communism in East Germany entitled ''Swords to Plowshares''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/498191 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Warren Snodgrass」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
