Laparoscopic sacropexy:
 an approach to pelvic
       prolapse
 Jean Pierre Giolitto, M.D.
 Polyclinique les Bleuets REIMS - France
                      SWISS-ENDOS December 2004
Introduction
19921996 strict reproduction of the technique by
          laparotomy.
19962000 innovative aspects
          new anatomic spaces
          endoscopic vision
          pneumo dissection
20002004 simplification of the technique
          reproducibility     with     acceptable
          operating time
          excellent results with anatomical
          correction and good functional results
Preoperative evaluation
Evaluation of the prolapse
     degree of prolapse:     uterus
                             bladder
                             rectum
                             enterocele
     cystocele
         central: break of vesico vaginal fascia, vaginal
         rugae absent
         lateral: vaginal rugae present
     higher rectocele (fascia detachment)
     lower rectocele (deficient levator ani muscle)
Preoperative evaluation
Evaluation of the (in)continence
     clinical examination
     urodynamic investigation
      prolapse plus pure SUI
      prolapse and hidden SUI
      prolapse without urinary problem
Evaluation of the rectal dysfunction
     constipation
     fecal or gas incontinence
Evaluation of the enterocele
MRI
Preoperative evaluation

Evaluation of the feasibility of laparoscopy
       general anesthesia with pneumo peritoneum
       Trendelenburg position
       older and obese patients
       the vaginal route will not be forgotten
Preoperative preparation

Bowel preparation
        empty the bowel and enlarge operating space
        low residual diet 4-5 days prior to surgery
        local enema one day before
Vaginal oestrogens
        3 or 4 weeks before
Vaginal and parietal disinfection
Preoperative assessment
   Clinical reexamination under general anesthesia
    search for new information which might modify the
    strategy
   Morphology of the abdominal wall
    position of trocars
         pubis – umbilicus distance
         first trocar Ø 10mm: umbilical or supra umbilical
         one 5 or 10mm trocar suprapubic on midline; at
          least 6cm between 1st and 2nd
         two 5mm lateral trocars at level of anterior
          superior iliac spines
Preoperative assessment

Exposition of the operating field
        fixation of the uterus to the anterior abdominal
         wall
        fixation of the bowel: sigmoid colon to the left
         abdominal wall
  Use a 5 or 6cm straight needle with a nylon suture
Operating strategy
   Dissection
     promontory: peritoneum to the Douglas
     rectovaginal space
    ( hysterectomy)
     anterior bladder dissection
   Reconstruction
          first posterior mesh with    culdoplasty   with
           immediate peritonization
          second anterior mesh
          fixation to the promontory
          complete reperitonization
Operating strategy
Dissection of the promontory
        Trendelenburg position
        level L5-S1  anterior vertebral ligament
        good care should be taken regarding to
             left iliac vein
             right ureter
             median sacral artery and vein
           lower bifurcation of aorta and obese patients
     Incision of the right lateral peritoneum :
             vertical dissection to Douglas pouch
             particular attention should be given to the right ureter
Operating strategy

Dissection of the rectovaginal space
        opening of the peritoneum of the Douglas pouch
         between the two uterosacral ligaments
        dissection downwards to the posterior vaginal
         wall
        identify the rectum and the laterally levator ani
         muscles
        use vaginal retractor
Operating strategy
Fixation of the posterior mesh
         both lateral sides  levator ani muscles – 2 or 4
          non absorbable sutures
         medially and laterally fixation of the mesh to the
          vaginal wall without transfixion
   Culdoplasty – Douglas pouch closing without
    douglassectomy
   Utero sacral ligaments suture and mesh
    reperitonization
   Restore normal anatomy rectum/vagina
Operating strategy
Fixation of the second mesh anteriorly
        bladder dissection just above the balloon of the
         bladder catheter
        fixation of the mesh with 3 or 5 non absorbable
         sutures, non transfixing
        no staples on vagina wall
        passage on the right side through broad ligament
         (or bilateral passage)
Operating strategy
Sacral colpopexy
       1 or 2 non absorbable suture (staples)
       proper tension with help of vaginal retractor
        ++ posterior mesh = no tension
        ++ anterior mesh = tension to correct cystocele
       strong extracorporeal knot
       upper reperitonization
        if uterus is left in place: avoid a peritoneum
        window between right broad ligament and
        posterior peritoneum
Operating strategy
Post operative care
     Foley catheter          1 or 2 days
     Antibio prophylaxis
     Prevention of phlebitis
     Hospital stay           2 or 3 days
     No heavy loads for 6 weeks
     No sexual intercourse for 4 weeks
