Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are women with pelvic organ prolapse of second stage or higher who are indicated for laparoscopic sacropexy.

Probably not a fit

Patients requesting uterine preservation or those with previous hysterectomy or malignancies of the female reproductive organs may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of cyanoacrylate adhesive in laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy, a minimally invasive procedure for treating apical prolapse. The goal is to reduce the operative time, which often exceeds 180 minutes due to the complexity of the surgery. By comparing traditional suture fixation methods with cyanoacrylate adhesives, the study aims to determine if the latter can decrease fixation time and potentially lower the risk of postoperative complications. The trial will involve patients who meet specific criteria related to pelvic organ prolapse severity and surgical indications.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could lead to shorter surgical times and reduced complications for patients undergoing laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.

How similar studies have gone: There are limited studies on the use of cyanoacrylate adhesives for implant fixation, indicating this approach may be novel or underexplored.
