Summary

Robotic-assisted Abdominal Sacrocolpopexy is both a feasible and safe method for apical prolapse repair of the vagina.

Conditions

  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Robotic-assisted laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy

4 abdominal incisions will be made: 1 infraumbilical port and 3 lateral ports. The peritoneum overlaying the sacrum is entered and the anterior longitudinal ligament is exposed. 3 permanent sutures are placed through the ligament at the S2-S3. Then a vaginal obturator is placed transvaginally and the apex of vagina is elevated into the operative field. The peritoneum overlying the anterior and posterior vaginal epithelium is reflected and the bladder is dissected off the underlying vagina to expose 4cm of apical vagina. 2 segments of polypropylene mesh are prepared and one segment is anchored along the anterior vagina with a series of interrupted permanent suture and the second segment is anchored along the posterior vagina. These 2 segments are brought together to the previously placed sutures within the anterior longitudinal ligament of the sacrum. The peritoneum is then closed over the graft complex and the pelvis irrigated. The 4 robotic ports are removed and the abdomen closed.

PROCEDURE

Open sacrocolpopexy

mesh augmented repair for post-hysterectomy prolapse performed via open laparotomy
