Anchor vs suture for attachment of vaginal mesh in robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy: A randomized clinical trial

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology May 16, 2020

Berger AA, et al. - Researchers examined how using absorbable anchors vs interrupted sutures for vaginal mesh attachment in robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy affects the duration of surgery. In this single-masked, randomized clinical trial, 53 women with pelvic organ prolapse undergoing robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy were randomized to either interrupted delayed-absorbable anchors or sutures for the vaginal mesh attachment portion of the case. Per observation, significantly less time was required for the anchor vaginal mesh attachment technique vs suturing in patients undergoing robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy. The techniques did not differ in complications, failure, surgeon or patient-reported outcomes through 12 months of follow-up. During sacrocolpopexy, mesh attachment can be done in less time employing the anchor technique, providing surgeons with another surgical technique for this procedure.
