Advantages and Disadvantages of Anchor and Suture Tape Stabilization of Pubic Symphysis Instability

Advantages	Disadvantages
Minimally invasive	Requires a general surgeon with laparoscopic skills
Less rigid construct	Technically challenging
Allows more physiological motion	Risk of aberrant anchor placement
Smaller wounds	Undertensioning may lead to continued pain
Less postoperative pain	Risk of inadvertent symphysis destabilization
Less hernia risk	Rely on implant
No need for hardware removal
