Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to assess the frequency of ureteral kinking during uterosacral ligament suspension (USLS) procedures and how it relates to the surgeon's training level.
- Out of 161 USLS procedures analyzed, 6.2% resulted in ureteral kinking, predominantly occurring with less experienced surgeons.
- Management of ureteral kinking increased surgery time by an average of 86 minutes, highlighting the need for improved training methods to mitigate this complication.

Article Synopsis
- * It analyzed data from 125 women treated between 2008 and 2013, finding that 96% achieved apical success post-surgery, and that lower preoperative D point measurements were linked to better postoperative support.
- * A critical threshold for the D point was identified at -4.25, suggesting that this measurement can help predict who will achieve successful outcomes after the surgical procedure.
