Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy posthysterectomy: intraoperative feasibility and safety in obese women compared with women of normal weight
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Our aim was to determine the intraoperative feasibility and complication rate of laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSC) in overweight and obese women compared with women of normal weight. METHODS: This was a retrospective observational cohort study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2) conducted at a tertiary urogyaenocology unit evaluating 119 women who underwent LSC between March 2005 and January 2013. RESULTS: Body mass index (BMI) was classified as normal (22.89 ± 1.55), overweight (27.12 ± 1.40) and obese (33.47 ± 3.26) according to the World Health Organisation (WHO) classification. There was no difference in intraoperative complication rates for bladder, bowel, ureteric or vascular injury; haemorrhage; conversion to laparotomy; or anaesthetic complications for normal weight, overweight or obese women. Similarly there was no difference in operating time, duration of anaesthetic or hospital stay between BMI class (p = 0.070, p = 0.464, p = 0.898, respectively) postoperative or mesh complication rates. At 6-months' follow-up, there was no difference in Patient Global Impression of Improvement scale (PGI-I) (defined as very much better or much better) between normal weight, overweight and obese women (76.9, 72 and 65.4%, p = .669) or objective cure using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) examination (p = 0.402). CONCLUSIONS: LSC is feasible, with equivalent intraoperative complication rates for normal weight, overweight and obese women when performed by experienced laparoscopic urogynaecologists. Given the benefits of a laparoscopic approach in obese women, the authors suggest they should be offered LSC as an option to treat vault prolapse when surgical management is being considered.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
