Objectives: As Laparoscopic Sacrocolpopexy (LSCP) has proven to be the gold-standard for treating Pelvic Organ Prolapse, management of recurrence after its failure is a challenge with upcoming interest. In these patients, repeat LSCP might represent a suitable surgical choice.

Study Design: We present a retrospective observational study analysing safety, feasibility and outcomes of Redo LSCP. Data of 20 patients with POP recurrence who underwent previous sacrocolpopexy were recruited, and all successfully underwent a repeat LSCP.

Results: Median 24-months follow-up demonstrated a statistically significant improvement of objective and subjective outcome. No intra and postoperative complications were noted. Anatomical cure rate was 95%. Subjective cure rate was 100%, with a statistically significant POP symptoms resolution and improvement of voiding and storage symptoms. We compared perioperative data and outcome of Redo patients to a population who underwent LSCP for a first-time diagnosed POP. The findings demonstrated that surgery did not differ from standard procedure in terms of intra/postoperative complications, hospital stay, blood loss, except for operative time.

Conclusions: Minimally invasive Redo LSCP appears to be a safe and effective procedure in treating recurrent and symptomatic Pelvic Organ Prolapse. Our series shows low recurrence rates, comparable to data from patients who underwent their primary surgery for POP.

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.

Objectives: Failures and complications associated with treatments comprising laparoscopic sacrohysteropexy (SHP) for advanced pelvic organ prolapse (POP) are unclear. We compared failure rates associated with SHP and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (SCH)/sacrocolpopexy (SCP) for advanced POP to determine whether they differed.

Methods: Clinical data of patients who underwent SHP (n = 52) and SCH/SCP (n = 209) were retrospectively examined.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the learning curve for robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy using CUSUM analysis to understand the surgeon's progress based on operation time, complications, and conversion rates to open surgery.
  • A total of 50 surgeries performed by one experienced gynecologist were analyzed, identifying key breakpoints in the learning phases at approximately case 9 for proficiency and case 35 for competency.
  • Results indicated that the surgeon faced no complications or need for conversion to open laparotomy throughout the study period, demonstrating successful learning and skill acquisition without any adverse outcomes.
