In the past, transvaginal surgery, native tissue restoration, or obliterative methods have been used in the majority of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgeries. Since laparoscopy has gained popularity, other procedures have been created to provide additional POP repair alternatives. Laparoscopic technique offers many advantages compared to open or transvaginal surgery when it comes to anatomical and surgical outcomes, recurrence rates, and patient's acceptance. Furthermore, we encouraged incorporating different laparoscopic techniques into urogynecology training to attract young gynecologists. Based on our own clinical and surgical experience, we present various laparoscopic techniques for treating POP. We think that by giving patients a variety of surgical alternatives, we can treat them all more effectively.
