This study explores using barbed sutures for faster peritoneal closure during laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy, a key pelvic organ surgery. Results suggest this technique may shorten operation times for this common procedure.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Techniques
  • Pelvic Reconstructive Surgery

Context:

  • Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy is a standard surgical procedure for pelvic organ prolapse.
  • Long operative times are a challenge in laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.
  • Peritoneal closure is a critical step that can contribute to operative duration.

Purpose:

  • To assess the feasibility of using a self-anchoring barbed suture (V-Loc™) for peritoneal closure during laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.
  • To evaluate the potential of barbed sutures to reduce operative time for this surgical step.

Summary:

  • A feasibility study investigated the use of V-Loc™ barbed sutures for peritoneal closure in laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.
  • The barbed suture offers a potential method to expedite the suturing process.
