Laparoscopic Sacrocervicopexy for the Treatment of Uterine Prolapse: A Retrospective Case Series Report

Does prolapse equal hysterectomy? The role of uterine conservation in women with uterovaginal prolapse

“…[25][26] Small prospective case series also report high anatomic and subjective cure rates ranging from 91 -95% and 77-88% respectively. 27 Compared to hysterectomy and sacrocolpopexy, sacral hysteropexy is associated with significantly less mesh exposure as it avoids placing a foreign body near the colpotomy site.…”

Laparoendoscopic single-site (LESS) hysteropexy

“…Both anterior and posterior mesh placement have been described and appear to provide good apical vaginal support. Rosenblatt et al [11] described their series of 40 consecutive women who underwent posterior placement of mesh in a similar fashion to our patient. Mean preoperative location of the distal cervical segment was 1.1 cm inside of the hymen, and this improved to 5.3 cm inside the hymen at 6 months after sacral hysteropexy.…”

Modified laparoscopic extraperitoneal uterine suspension to anterior abdominal wall: the easier way to treat uterine prolapse

“…In 2007, Cutner et al [10] reported laparoscopic uterine sling suspension using Mersilene (polyester) tape (Ethicon, Inc.) to reinforce the uterosacral ligaments and suspend the uterus to the sacral promontory bilaterally in eight women. In 2008, Rosenblatt et al [11] published a case series of 40 women who underwent laparoscopic sacrocervicopexy in which a synthetic mesh was used to suspend the posterior vaginal apex and cervix to the sacral promontory. In all of the women, apical suspension was successful as evaluated using point C, with mean follow-up of 8.4 months.…”
