Robotic Sacrocolpopexy—Is It the Treatment of Choice for Advanced Apical Pelvic Organ Prolapse?

Abstract: Recent findings support the superior durability of SC for apical prolapse repair compared to native tissue vaginal approaches. Recent evidence demonstrates that anatomic outcomes of minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy, including RSC, are no different than those of traditional ASC. Low quality evidence suggests lower rates of dyspareunia with SC compared to vaginal repairs. RSC may be cost-effective when compared to ASC. When compared to LSC, however, RSC is more expensive and associated with longer operating tim… Show more

“…The study also demonstrated that RSC is the most expensive surgical approach to apical prolapse repair, and this finding is likely related to the additional cost of acquisition and maintenance of the robotic system and the recurring costs of consumables. Operating room fees are also more expensive with RSC, owing in part to increased staffing, additional time for robotic setup and docking, and prolonged operating times [17][18][19][20]. Direct costs related to anesthesia, hospital room, medication, imaging and laboratory studies have not been shown to be significantly different among various approaches to apical prolapse repair [16].…”

“…In an effort to decrease the morbidity associated with open sacrocolpopexy, RSC, which decreases the difficulty associated with laparoscopic knot tying, and 3-dimensional visualization aiding sacral dissection, has rapidly gained popularity. However, variation in surgical technique includes the amount of vaginal dissection, type of mesh, number or location of sutures that should be placed to secure the suspending mesh, retroperitonealization of the mesh, and cervix preservation [6364].…”

“…With the developments in robotic surgery, robotic sacrocolpopexy was first applied by Di Marco et al in 2004 [9]. The studies showed that minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy had an equivalent efficiency compared to abdominal sacrocolpopexy [10][11][12]. Additionally, speeding up patient recovery and minimizing surgical morbidity have caused extensive use of minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy in recent years [13,14].…”
