About
Dr. Georgios Poutakidis is a leading figure in urogynecology and pelvic reconstructive surgery, with a focused research agenda on optimizing surgical outcomes for pelvic organ prolapse (POP). His major contributions lie in comparative effectiveness research, specifically evaluating the trade-offs between minimally invasive robotic-assisted techniques and traditional vaginal approaches. His landmark prospective, multicenter study, "Pelvic Organ Prolapse Repair Using Robotic-Assisted Sacral Hysterocolpopexy vs Vaginal Surgery with the Uphold™ System," directly compares 1-year clinical outcomes of robotic-assisted sacral hysterocolpopexy (RASC) against the vaginal Uphold™ mesh system. This work provides crucial, evidence-based guidance for surgeons selecting the most appropriate procedure for their patients. While his most cited paper currently holds 3 citations, its recent publication in 2025 signals its emerging impact within the field. Dr. Poutakidis’s work is instrumental in advancing patient-centered care by rigorously evaluating the efficacy and safety of modern surgical innovations, helping to define best practices in the management of pelvic floor disorders.
