Robot-assisted sacrocolpopexy: not only for vaginal vault suspension? An observational cohort study.

Introduction And Hypothesis: Surgery for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) has high recurrence rates. Long-term anatomical and patient-reported outcomes after pelvic floor repair are therefore required.

Methods: This prospective observational cohort study was conducted in a teaching hospital with tertiary referral function for patients with POP.

Long-term Anatomical and Functional Results of Robot-Assisted Pelvic Floor Surgery for the Management of Multicompartment Prolapse: A Prospective Study.

Background: Long-term data on robot-assisted sacrocolporectopexy for the treatment of multicompartment pelvic organ prolapse are scarce. With the rising prevalence of prolapse and increasing surgical repair, it is essential to evaluate long-term results.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate long-term functional and anatomic outcomes after sacrocolporectopexy.

Long-term mesh erosion rate following abdominal robotic reconstructive pelvic floor surgery: a prospective study and overview of the literature.

Introduction And Hypothesis: The use of synthetic mesh in transvaginal pelvic floor surgery has been subject to debate internationally. Although mesh erosion appears to be less associated with an abdominal approach, the long-term outcome has not been studied intensively. This study was set up to determine the long-term mesh erosion rate following abdominal pelvic reconstructive surgery.

Learning curve of robot-assisted laparoscopic sacrocolpo(recto)pexy: a cumulative sum analysis.

Background: Determination of the learning curve of new techniques is essential to improve safety and efficiency. Limited information is available regarding learning curves in robot-assisted laparoscopic pelvic floor surgery.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the learning curve in robot-assisted laparoscopic pelvic floor surgery.

Mesh Exposure After Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Pelvic Floor Surgery: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Study Objective: To prospectively evaluate the mesh exposure rate after robot-assisted laparoscopic pelvic floor surgery for the treatment of female pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in a large cohort.

Design: Prospective observational cohort study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2).

Setting: Two large teaching hospitals with a tertiary referral function for pelvic floor disorders.

Sexual function after robot-assisted prolapse surgery: a prospective study.

Introduction And Hypothesis: Female pelvic organ prolapse (POP) can severely influence sexual function. Robot-assisted surgery is increasingly used to treat POP, but studies describing its effect on sexual function are limited. The objective of this study was to evaluate sexual function after robot-assisted POP surgery.

Robot-Assisted Sacrocolporectopexy for Multicompartment Prolapse of the Pelvic Floor: A Prospective Cohort Study Evaluating Functional and Sexual Outcome.

Background: Pelvic floor disorders are a major public health issue. For female genital prolapse, sacrocolpopexy is the gold standard. Laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy is a relatively new and promising technique correcting rectal prolapse.
