Hypospadias repair in adulthood

My urethra opens at the junction of shaft and glans on my penis, but the urethra is overlain by wafer thin skin for half an inch down the shaft. My penis is small, and has a marked twist bewteen base and glans when flaccid which seems to be getting worse as I get older. I wonder if anyone has had this sort of hypospadias corrected as an adult? It has had a profound effect on my psychological state (especially in preventing me having relationships), but even though things are bad now, I wouldn't want to make them any worse. The opening of the urethra is mostly ok but sometimes sprays urine about messily.
Any thoughts?
