Sacral colpopexy is the gold standard for vaginal vault suspension throughout the literature. The operation is considered to be invasive yet very effective. The laparoscopic approach to the sacral colpopexy is not only effective but can have minimal morbidity in the correct surgeon's hands. The authors have performed more than 500 sacral colpopexy via laparoscopy with minimal morbidity and thus share their technique with the reader.
