NCT ID NCT01320215
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compared two types of minimally invasive surgery for pelvic organ prolapse in 365 women. One group had robot-assisted surgery, while the other had standard laparoscopic surgery without a robot. The main goal was to see which approach had fewer complications within 30 days after the operation.
