    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To compare objective and subjective outcomes of laparoscopic sacral colpopexy with supracervical hysterectomy (L-SCP) and robotic sacral hysteropexy (R-SHP). METHODS: This is a multicenter retrospective propensity score matched study. In the period between January 2014 and December 2018, we enrolled 161 patients with apical prolapse stage 2 or above, alone or with multicompartment descensus. RESULTS: After propensity-match analysis, there were 44 women for each group. Patients of the two groups had similar preoperative characteristics. No difference was found in terms of estimated blood loss, hospital stay, operative time, and intraoperative or postoperative complications. Subjective success rate, 12 months after surgery, was statistically better in the L-SCP group (P = 0.034): 81.8% and 97.8% women had Patient Global Impression of Improvement scores less than 3, in R-SHP and L-SCP, respectively. The objective cure rate was high in both groups without any significant differences in recurrence rate (P = 0.266). CONCLUSION: Both procedures are safe and effective in pelvic organ prolapse treatment. Patients who no longer desire uterine preservation could be encouraged to consider L-SCP. R-SHP is an alternative in women who are strongly motivated to preserve their uterus in the absence of abnormal uterine findings.
