Article Synopsis
- Laparoscopic sacral colpopexy (SC) is a surgical procedure for treating apical prolapse, but carries a risk of damaging the median sacral artery (MSA) during surgery, potentially causing severe bleeding.
- Researchers reviewed 60 pelvic CT scans to locate the MSA's position relative to key anatomical landmarks like the ureters and iliac arteries.
- Findings indicated that the MSA is typically situated slightly left of the sacral midline, with various structures on the right side being closer to the MSA than those on the left, offering crucial information for surgeons to minimize injury risks during SC.
