We report our initial experience in five patients, focusing on surgical techniques and short\u2010term outcomes. All procedures were completed robotically without conversion to open or laparoscopic surgery. The median operative time was 175\u2009min (range, 162\u2013209), and the median console time was 100\u2009min (range, 79\u2013139). The median inflow occlusion time was 31\u2009min (range, 14\u201362). Intraoperative blood loss was minimal, with a median of 0\u2009mL (range, 0\u201310). No intraoperative or postoperative complications were observed. The median postoperative hospital stay was 7\u2009days (range, 4\u201311). The series included lesions in both left\u2010 and right\u2010sided liver segments, including technically demanding areas such as segment 7. These findings suggest that Hugo RAS minor hepatectomy appears feasible and safe in selected cases, with favorable short\u2010term outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/ases.70349","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,10]],"date-time":"2026-07-10T06:03:30Z","timestamp":1783663410000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Robotic
