Key Points

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and learning curve of the Hugo™ RAS platform for colorectal surgery.
Retrospective analysis of 100 consecutive adult patients undergoing elective colorectal resection using Hugo™ RAS.
Assessment of primary outcomes including operative time, blood loss, conversion rate, and complications.
Learning curves assessed via CUSUM analysis.
Median operative time was 180 min with blood loss of 50 mL; zero conversions occurred.
Achieved R0 resection in 93% of cases with median lymph node harvest of 20.
Overall morbidity was 28%, with 5% major complications; stable major complications observed over the cases.
