Many associated risks for hypospadias have been reported like family history, older maternal age, nulliparity, high pre-pregnancy body mass index of mother, hypertension or preeclampsia, multiple gestations, low birth weight, and small for gestational age. In literature twinning as a risk factor has been consistently shown to be associated with hypospadias. We report a 2-year-old male child (one of the twins) who presented with proximal microphallic hypospadias.}
