N2 - Correction of apical descent is an essential component of a durable prolapse surgery and can be achieved by multiple different techniques and surgical approaches. Laparoscopic prolapse surgery produces excellent outcomes and lower costs, compared to robotic surgery, without compromising success and remains a valuable surgical approach to prolapse repair. This review summarizes the evidence for conventional laparoscopic apical prolapse repair, compared to alternative surgical approaches, and provides recommended techniques with tips and tricks to optimize this approach.
