About
Patrick Dällenbach is a leading figure in the advancement of robotic gynecologic surgery, with a primary focus on pelvic organ prolapse repair. His most significant contribution is the development and standardization of robotically assisted laparoscopic lateral suspension (RALLS) with mesh, a novel procedure designed to treat anterior and apical prolapse while avoiding the life-threatening vascular complications associated with the traditional gold standard, sacral colpopexy. Dällenbach’s work, including a foundational 2014 video article and a 2021 outcomes study (totaling 33 citations), demonstrates that RALLS offers a safer, equally effective alternative. He has also explored the frontiers of single-site robotics, as seen in his work on combined cholecystectomy and hysterectomy. By publishing a step-by-step guide in 2023 to standardize the RALLS technique, Dällenbach is actively shaping surgical practice, making complex robotic prolapse repair more accessible and reproducible for surgeons worldwide.
