Robotic surgery has gained worldwide acceptance in the past decade, and several studies have shown that this technique is safe and feasible. The innovation of this system is the open surgical console with an HD–3D display, a system tower, and four independent arm carts. We describe the first robot-assisted cholecystectomy performed with the new Hugo RAS (robotic-assisted surgery) system (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) in Spain. The procedure was completed without conversion. No intraoperative complication or technical failure of the system was recorded. The operative time was 70 min. The docking time was 3 min. Hospital length of stay was 1 days. This case report shows the safety and feasibility of cholecystectomy with the Hugo RAS system and provides relevant data that may be of help to early adopters of this surgical platform.
