We hypothesized that women undergoing minimally invasive (MIS) sacrocolpopexy aged\u2009\u2265\u200970\u00a0years are more likely to experience adverse events (AE) within 8\u00a0weeks of surgery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We performed a secondary analysis of a retrospective study on perioperative adverse events in women\u2009\u2265\u200961\u00a0years old undergoing prolapse surgery at a single academic center from January 2016 to May 2023. Only women undergoing MIS sacrocolpopexy were included. The primary outcome was a composite 8-week AE outcome. Secondary outcomes included prolapse recurrence and mesh complication. Variables were compared between the groups using\n                      <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\n                      -test (or Mann\u2013Whitney U) and chi-square (or Fisher\u2019s exact) analyses.

Age\u2009\u2265\u200970 was not significantly associated with 8-week perioperative AEs, nor was it associated with prolapse recurrence or mesh complication. The composite AE outcome was not associated with age\u2009\u2265\u200970 on multivariable analysis, controlling for CCI score, robotic approach, and concomitant hysterectomy (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 0.64, 95% confidence interval (CI) [0.38\u20131.10]). Women aged\u2009\u2265\u200970\u00a0years had a 73% lesser adjusted odds of surgical site infections on multivariable analysis (95% CI [0.08\u20130.93]).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Age\u2009\u2265\u200970\u00a0years is not associated with perioperative AEs, prolapse recurrence, or mesh complication.
