Overview
Robotic sacral colpopexy is a minimally invasive procedure to treat pelvic organ prolapse. The surgeon uses a robotic system to attach the vagina or uterus to the sacrum, restoring pelvic anatomy, reducing prolapse symptoms, and improving bladder and bowel function.
Conditions Treated
Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP)
Uterine Prolapse
Who is it for?
For women with pelvic organ prolapse needing a minimally invasive repair
Benefits
Restores pelvic anatomy through a minimally invasive approach, improving bladder and bowel function while reducing prolapse symptoms
How it Works
This minimally invasive robotic-assisted procedure attaches the top of the vagina or uterus to the sacrum using mesh or sutures to correct and support pelvic organ prolapse, restoring normal anatomy and function.
Duration
2-3 hours
Recovery
Recovery usually takes 6-8 weeks, though many patients can resume gentle activities sooner. The minimally invasive nature of robotic surgery often leads to reduced pain and faster healing.
