To Explore the Surgical Outcomes and Safety of an Innovative Laparoscopic Uterine Pectopexy Technique Using Inverted T-meshes for Simultaneous Apical and Anterior Vaginal Repair.

Plain-language summary

Patients referred for pelvic reconstructive surgery frequently present with combined anterior and apical vaginal wall prolapse. Previous studies found that anterior compartment involvement is the most common and serious defect that occurs with an apical defect. To address this, many surgeons will conduct concomitant surgeries in addition to sacrocolpopexy or pectopexy. This prospective pilot study was conducted to explore the surgical outcomes and safety of an innovative laparoscopic uterine pectopexy technique using inverted T-meshes for simultaneous apical and anterior vaginal repair.
