Keywords and phrases in the left column were used in conjunction with the ICD-9 code (752.61) for hypospadias; whereas those in both columns were used in conjunction with the balance (ie, non-hypospadias) of ICD-9 codes listed in Table 2. Note that because of the searching process, a keyword search for a term such as “gonad” would also identify terms such as “gonads”, “gonadic”, and “gonadal”.
