The Surgical Challenge of the Repeat Sacrocolpopexy.
Review in International urogynecology journal, 2026. 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 hypothesisSacrocolpopexy (SCP) is considered the "gold standard" of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair. There are no clear guidelines on the ideal mode of surgical retreatment when SCP fails. We aimed to summarize the existing literature regarding the performance of repeat SCP.
methodsWe reviewed existing literature regarding surgical retreatment after SCP failure. Four hundred twenty-seven unique abstracts were identified, and two authors independently assessed eligibility and abstracted data from each study. Thirty-two full-text articles were reviewed, and 15 specifically concerning repeat SCP were included in the analysis.
resultsThe 15 articles included information on 116 patients. The majority (62.1%) underwent laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSCP) as their index surgery, with a median time to recurrence of 24.0 months. Median prolapse stage at time of recurrence was stage 3. Repeat LSCP was the most common surgical technique (80.2%) after SCP failure. Mesh detachment was noted from the vagina (51.7%) and from the sacrum (9.5%). Only 23.3% of cases reported excising prior mesh. The median follow-up time after repeat surgery was 6.0 months. Mean subjective success rates were 89.7%, objective success rates (with varying definitions) were 85.2%, and the reoperation rate was 6.6%.
conclusionsSCP failure, though rare, presents a surgical challenge due to the procedural complexity and the limited information regarding the optimal mode of management. In this review, LSCP was the preferred method of reoperation. Short-term objective and subjective success rates after repeat SCP were high, and reoperation rates were low. Additional studies with longer-term follow-up are needed.
