Purpose Of Review: This paper aims to review and comment on the developments in laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy published during the last year.
Recent Findings: We classified the findings reported recently in the literature for laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy as technical or tactical findings. Technical findings concern the material of the mesh, the methods of mesh fixation, the use of adapted vaginal retractors and the interest in robotic assistance. Tactical findings consist of specific modifications to the standard surgical procedure aimed at reducing the side effects and complications and ameliorating the effectiveness of this intervention. These modifications include the possibility of avoiding the placement of a posterior mesh and the fixation of the posterior mesh to the puborectal muscles or the perineal body instead of the posterior vaginal wall. A specific section has been dedicated to reviewing and commenting on those interventions associated routinely with laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.
Summary: Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy is a safe surgical procedure in constant evolution which allows excellent results in the treatment of utero-vaginal prolapse. Large prospective, randomized studies comparing the different technical and tactical modifications recently introduced are needed in order to further enhance the effectiveness of this intervention.

Describing Sacrocolpopexy in Medical Literature: A Proposed Surgical Classification System.
JSLS
January 2025
Western New York Urology Associates, Cheektowaga, New York, USA. (Dr. Eddib).
Background: Sacrocolpopexy has become a favored treatment of pelvic organ prolapse due to its durability and efficacy. Sacrocolpopexy has not been standardized and there is no categorization scheme to facilitate communication or research efforts for the procedure. A systematic review was conducted to facilitate construction of a classification system for sacrocolpopexy based on extent of vaginal dissection described in the medical literature.

Article Synopsis
- The study compares total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (LSCH) during minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy for treating uterovaginal prolapse.
- Results showed no significant difference in overall recurrence of prolapse between the two methods, but TLH had lower odds of recurrence in multivariable analysis.
- TLH had a higher proportion of mesh exposures with lightweight mesh, but this finding wasn't significant after adjusting for other factors.
Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Sacrohysteropexy with Autologous Fascia Lata.
Int Urogynecol J
December 2024
Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Monash University, Clayton, VIC, 3168, Australia.
Introduction And Hypothesis: Autologous fascia lata has been increasingly utilised in pelvic floor reconstructive surgeries such as sacrocolpopexy and sacrohysteropexy. This case highlights sacrohysteropexy with autologous fascia lata as a promising option for women with advanced uterovaginal prolapse who wish to preserve their uterus and avoid synthetic mesh.
Methods: We report the case of a 65-year-old woman with stage 3 pelvic organ prolapse following one forceps and one spontaneous vaginal delivery.
Comparison of sexual function between laparoscopic lateral suspension and laparoscopic sacrocervicopexy with the use of the PISQ-IR questionnaire.

Hôpitaux Universitaires de Genève (HUG), Geneva, Switzerland.
Introduction And Hypothesis: We aimed to analyze the quality of sexual life of patients with apical vaginal wall prolapse who had undergone laparoscopic lateral suspension (LLS) and laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSC).
Methods: We performed a secondary analysis of sexual outcomes of a previous randomized control trial comparing LLS and LSC in 89 women with symptomatic POP stage ≥ II. We evaluated sexually active (SA) and non-sexually active women (NSA) using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire-IUGA-Revised (PISQ-IR).
Background: The advantages and disadvantages of Robotic Laparoscopic Surgery (RLS) compared to other minimally invasive surgical approaches are debated in the literature.
Objective: To evaluate the learning curves (LC) and their assessment methods for Robotic Laparoscopic Surgery (RLS) and Laparoscopic Surgery (LPS) in gynaecologic procedures.
Materials And Methods: A systematic review of the literature was performed including the English language observational or interventional studies reporting the absolute number of procedures needed to achieve competency in RLS and LPS gynaecologic procedures, along with an objective and reproducible LC assessment method.
