Single Versus Multi-port Robotic Assisted Sacrocolpopexy for Repair of Vaginal Apex Prolapse

Single Versus Multi-port Robotic Assisted Sacrocolpopexy for Repair of Vaginal Apex Prolapse

A prospective randomized controlled study intended to compare the efficacy of 2 methods of robotic assisted sacrocolpopexy for the repair of vaginal apex prolapse:

1. Via single-port.
2. Via multi-port.

One hundred female patients diagnosed with vaginal apex prolapse will be recruited to a prospective randomized controlled study intended to compare the efficacy of 2 methods of robotic assisted sacrocolpopexy:

1. Via single-port.
2. Via multi-port. The patients will be evaluated and randomized 2 weeks before the expected date of surgery during which eligibility will be examined.

Patients' electronic files will be reviewed post operatively to acquire information regarding medical history, prolapse scores, surgical information, anesthesia information and surgical complications.

Patients will have 3 week and 3 month post operative follow-up sessions to determine surgical success, late complications and patient satisfaction.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Female patients with vaginal apex prolapse that are eligible for repair by sacrocolpopexy.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients after previous hysterectomy.
• Patients after previous surgical procedures for prolapse repair.
