Intraoperative Complications and Perioperative and Surgical Outcomes of Single-Port Robotics-Assisted Sacrocolpopexy

Introduction and Hypothesis

The objective was to assess intraoperative and postoperative complication rates, along with perioperative and surgical outcomes, following single-port robotics-assisted sacrocolpopexy.

Methods

This retrospective case series included 200 patients who underwent single-port robotics-assisted sacrocolpopexy to treat Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POPQ) stage 2–4 symptomatic prolapse between April 2020 and August 2023 by a single surgeon. Intraoperative and postoperative complications and perioperative outcomes were evaluated for all the patients, whereas surgical outcomes for 74 patients were assessed at 1-year follow-up. Surgical failure was defined as the presence of any of the following: the presence of vaginal bulging symptoms, any prolapse beyond the hymen, or retreatment for prolapse.

Results

During the study period, 200 single-port robotics-assisted sacrocolpopexies were performed. The median age and body mass index were 65.0 years and 24.6 kg/m2 respectively. Most patients had POPQ stage 3 or 4 prolapse and underwent concomitant total hysterectomy. The median total operation time was 212.0 min, and none of the patients required conversion to laparoscopy or laparotomy. The intraoperative cystotomy rate was 2.5%, and one patient had a blood transfusion owing to presacral vessel injury. Postoperative complications of mesh exposure and wound hernia were 0.5% and 2.0% respectively. At 1 year postoperatively, the rate of composite surgical failure was 9.5%, with a 5.4% anatomical recurrence rate. None of the patients experienced apical prolapse recurrence, and one received anterior colporrhaphy for anterior compartment prolapse recurrence.

Conclusions

Single-port robotics-assisted sacrocolpopexy is safe and effective, with low complication rates and favorable perioperative and surgical outcomes.
