Robotically assisted laparoscopic lateral suspension: a step-by-step approach aiming to standardize a novel procedure.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introduction and hypothesisThe aim of this video is to show a step-by-step approach to robotically assisted laparoscopic lateral suspension for pelvic organ prolapse aiming to standardize this procedure.
methodsThis video shows a robotically assisted laparoscopic approach to a POP-Q stage 3 prolapse with a combined anterior and apical defect. First, the trocars are positioned, with one 8-mm trocar, two lateral trocars 5 cm above the anterior-superior iliac spine, and a 10-mm assistant trocar either paraumbilically or suprapubically. Second, the uterovesical pouch is dissected up to 2 cm above the level of the bladder neck. The mesh is then fixed to the vesicovaginal fascia and to the isthmus uteri. Next, a laparoscopic forceps is inserted retroperitoneally through the lateral trocars and the lateral arms of the mesh are pulled retroperitoneally. The peritoneum of the uterovesical fold is sutured, including round ligament plication. Finally, the lateral arms of the peritoneum are fixed to the peritoneum of the abdominal wall.
conclusionsRobotically assisted laparoscopic lateral suspension is a safe alternative to laparoscopic and robotically assisted laparoscopic sacropexy and very well suited for uterine-preserving POP surgery. This video contributes to the standardization of this procedure, and we believe our video to be useful in helping urogynecologists to perform this innovative procedure.
