This masterclass, presented by Dr Matteo Rottoli, explores the implementation and clinical application of the Hugo Robotic platform in colorectal procedures. Dr Rottoli will share insights from one of the first high volume experiences with the system, including refined docking strategies and workflow optimisation for low anterior resection and deep pelvic surgery. The session will explore the Hugo platform’s modular design, multi docking configurations, and practical approaches to navigating its unique features, with a focus on efficiency, team coordination and facilitating the transition from laparoscopy to robotic colorectal surgery.
