This difference is especially notable when considering complex procedures such as total colectomy. Aim: To demonstrate the feasibility and safety of using the Hugo RAS\u00ae (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) platform for total colectomy. Clinical case: An 18-year-old female patient with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) and a BMI of 19 underwent a total colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis using the Hugo RAS\u00ae platform. The procedure lasted 253 min without complications. The postoperative period was uneventful, and she was discharged from the hospital on the third postoperative day. Conclusion: The Hugo RAS\u00ae platform is an emerging minimally invasive robotic that can be used even for total colectomy with proper patient selection. The placement and choice of arms and trocars were crucial to obtaining a similar operative time to the standard laparoscopic approach. The certification of Hugo\u2019s new instruments, such as energy devices and staplers, will make this platform even more competitive.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm13206071","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,14]],"date-time":"2024-10-14T12:44:31Z","timestamp":1728909871000},"page":"6071","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["First Worldwide Report of a Total Colectomy with the Hugo RAS Platform"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5704-8895","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marisa Domingues dos","family":"Santos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Colorectal Surgery Unit, Unidade Local de Sa\u00fade de Santo Ant\u00f3nio, Centro Hospitalar Universit\u00e1rio de Santo Ant\u00f3nio, 4050-342 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"UMIB\u2014Unit for Multidisciplinary Research in Biomedicine, ICBAS\u2014School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, University of Porto, 4050-346 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"ITR\u2014Laboratory for Integrative and Translational Research in Population Health, 4050-600 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Pedro","family":"Brand\u00e3o","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Colorectal Surgery Unit, Unidade Local de Sa\u00fade de Santo Ant\u00f3nio, Centro Hospitalar Universit\u00e1rio de Santo Ant\u00f3nio, 4050-342 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"UMIB\u2014Unit for Multidisciplinary Research in Biomedicine, ICBAS\u2014School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, University of Porto, 4050-346 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"ITR\u2014Laboratory for Integrative and Translational Research in Population Health, 4050-600 Porto, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2792","DOI":"10.1007\/s00464-015-4552-8","article-title":"Comparison of open, laparoscopic, and robotic approaches for total abdominal colectomy","volume":"30","author":"Moghadamyeghaneh","year":"2016","journal-title":"Surg.
