Video Summary
In this instructional video, medical student Norena DeSoma from the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Peoria demonstrates the process of robotic utero-sacral ligament suspension. This technique is used to provide support to the vagina and prevent post-hysterectomy vaginal bolt prolapse. The video outlines the steps involved in the suspension, including identifying anatomical landmarks and using the Xero V-lock suture to anchor the ligaments. Proper identification and manipulation of tissues, such as the rectovaginal septum and pubocervical fascia, are crucial for a successful suspension. The video emphasizes the importance of performing this procedure during minimally invasive hysterectomies to reduce the risk of subsequent apical vaginal prolapse.
