The Versius Surgical System offers a safe and effective platform for extraperitoneal robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (eRALP). This study demonstrates its versatility and suitability for urologic surgeons, particularly those with laparoscopic experience.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Robotic Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • The Versius Surgical System is a novel tele-operated robotic platform for minimally invasive surgery.
  • Robotic surgery is increasingly adopted globally.
  • This study details single-center experience with Versius in prostate cancer surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and versatility of the Versius system.
  • To report outcomes of extraperitoneal robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (eRALP) using Versius.
  • To identify advantages and challenges of the Versius system in clinical practice.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective analysis of 53 eRALP procedures performed with the Versius system.
  • Data collected included setup time, console time, operative time, and patient outcomes.

  • Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the results.

    • Main Results:

    • A total of 53 eRALP procedures were performed over 16 months.
    • Mean setup time was 15 minutes, mean console time was 100 minutes, and mean operative time was 130 minutes.
    • Significant reductions in setup and console times were observed after the first 5 procedures, with no major system failures or complications.

    Conclusions:

    • This series represents the largest extraperitoneal RALP case series using the Versius system to date.
    • The Versius platform demonstrates safety, effectiveness, and versatility for eRALP.
    • The system is well-suited for urologic surgeons, especially those transitioning to robotic surgery or with extensive laparoscopic experience.
