Herein we report our first experience with Hugo RAS (TM) proposing a mirrored approach with different angles. Two experienced surgeons performed 10 prostatectomies (six with the standard approach and four with the mirrored one). The median docking time was 12.5 (IQR 12-15) vs. 13.5 (IQR 12-20) minutes. The median console time was 229 (174-245) vs. 172 (IQR 164-191) minutes. None of the procedures required conversion to open surgery. The study proves the versatility of the Hugo RASTM to perform robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with two different docking angles and might be useful for novel users to adopt the preferred approach.

Abstract
Herein we report our first experience with Hugo RAS (TM) proposing a mirrored approach with different angles. Two experienced surgeons performed 10 prostatectomies (six with the standard approach and four with the mirrored one). The median docking time was 12.5 (IQR 12-15) vs. 13.5 (IQR 12-20) minutes. The median console time was 229 (174-245) vs. 172 (IQR 164-191) minutes. None of the procedures required conversion to open surgery. The study proves the versatility of the Hugo RASTM to perform robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with two different docking angles and might be useful for novel users to adopt the preferred approach.
