AI Article Synopsis

  • Sacral colpopexy, using autologous tissue, is being examined as a safe and effective alternative to standard procedures involving synthetic mesh for treating advanced apical prolapse.
  • A systematic review was conducted, finding that 7 eligible studies reported cure rates between 94.7% and 100% with medium-term follow-up, and high satisfaction levels among patients.
  • Complication rates varied from 0% to 36.8%, with most being minor, suggesting that sacral colpopexy with autologous fascia can be considered in specific clinical cases.

Article Abstract

Objectives: Although sacral colpopexy is considered the gold standard for the treatment of advanced apical prolapse, several warnings and restrictions has been delivered to urogynecological surgeons in order to avoid the implants of prosthetics meshes. The purpose of this systematic review is to investigate the role of sacral colpopexy performed with autologous tissue in literature.

Methods: a systematic review according to PRISMA guidelines was performed in June 2022 through the Medline, Web of Science and Scopus databases. Quality assessment of each article was performed according to Critical Appraisal tool of Oxford center for EBM, LoE according to SORT standards, ROBINS-I tool for methodological assessment in non-randomized trials. From 236 screened records, 7 articles were considered eligible for this systematic review.

Results: Collected data showed objective cure rate ranging from 94.7% to 100% in medium term follow up. Subjective cure rate was specifically investigated in 2 studies with high satisfaction rates. Complication rate ranged from 0 to 36.8%, with 90.1% graded ≤2 according to Clavien-Dindo classification.

Conclusions: sacral colpopexy with autologous fascia shows satisfying outcomes in terms of safety and efficacy and may be taken in account in particular clinical situations.

To rest or not to rest after sacral colpopexy? Dispelling an old custom in the ERAS time.

Arch Gynecol Obstet

January 2025

Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario "A. Gemelli", Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Rome, Italy.

Purpose: Despite the advent of the ERAS Program, recovery after urogynecological surgery is still a highly debated topic in clinical practice. The majority of gynecologic surgeons, in fact, continue to advise patients to home rest and to avoid lifting heavy objects after surgery. The aim of the present study was to verify the impact of a moderate-high physical activity and recovery after surgery on anatomical results after LSC, with a 2-year follow-up (FU).

Feasibility of per-operative transperineal ultrasounds in the visualization of the anterior mesh during laparoscopic sacral colpopexy.

Fr J Urol

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Antoine-Béclère Hospital, Assistance publique-Hôpitaux de Paris, 157, rue de la Porte-de-Trivaux, 92140 Clamart, France; Université de Paris-Saclay, Kremlin-Bicêtre, France. Electronic address:

When treating anterior and apical prolapse, laparoscopic sacral colpopexy is the gold standard. Currently, it is suggested that the anterior mesh must be the lowest possible to better treat the prolapse and lower the risk of recurrence. The objective of our study was to determine the possibility of using intraoperative transperineal ultrasound measurements during laparoscopic sacral colpopexy in order to better localize the mesh positioning.

Minimally invasive surgery could improve cosmetic outcomes and reduce the risks of surgical injury with less postoperative pain and a quicker patient's discharge. Recently, transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has been introduced in urogynecology with exciting results. After PROSPERO registration (n°CRD42023406815), we performed a comprehensive literature search on Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL, including peer-reviewed studies evaluating transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the outcomes of a new surgical technique called pelvic organ prolapse suspension (POPS) for treating pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and rectal prolapse, focusing on patients who experience recurrence of symptoms after the procedure.
  • The research involved 25 women, primarily menopausal, who mostly had recurrent posterior vaginal wall prolapse and associated obstructed defecation syndrome, with all undergoing laparoscopic ventral rectopexy surgery.
  • Findings indicated no anatomical recurrences after surgery and a significant improvement in patient symptoms, suggesting that a multidisciplinary approach and the use of minimally invasive techniques can be effective for managing recurrent POP.

Study Objective: To determine the long-term costs of hysterectomy with minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy (MISCP) versus uterosacral ligament suspension (USLS) for primary uterovaginal prolapse repair.

Design: A hospital-based decision analysis model was built using TreeAge Pro (TreeAge Software Inc, Williamstown, MA). Those with prolapse were modeled to undergo either vaginal hysterectomy with USLS or minimally invasive total hysterectomy with sacrocolpopexy (MISCP).
