This study will evaluate the safety and performance of the Medtronic Hugo™ RAS System when used for urologic RAS procedures.
A prospective, multicenter, single-arm pivotal study in subjects undergoing a urologic RAS procedure using the Medtronic Hugo™ RAS System. Subjects without an oncologic indication will be followed for 30 days post-procedure. Oncologic subjects will be followed annually through 5 years. The study will be conducted in up to 6 investigative sites in the United States of America (USA).
1,798 studies on the registry are indexed under Urinary Bladder Neoplasms; 445 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 144 is above the median of 60 across 1,296 interventional studies indexed under Urinary Bladder Neoplasms.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.
The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Robotic Assisted Surgery (RAS) urologic surgery under the umbrella of procedures outlined by the FDA (prostatectomy, cystectomy and nephrectomy).
Device: RAS Prostatectomy · Device: RAS Cystectomy · Device: RAS Nephrectomy
Subjects indicated for Robotic Assisted Surgery (RAS) for prostatectomy will have RAS surgery using the Medtronic Hugo RAS system.
Subjects indicated for Robotic Assisted Surgery (RAS) for cystectomy will have RAS surgery using the Medtronic Hugo RAS system.
Subjects indicated for Robotic Assisted Surgery (RAS) for nephrectomy (Radical/Partial) will have RAS surgery using the Medtronic Hugo RAS system.
Primary Effectiveness Endpoint - Surgical Success Rate, Defined as the Procedure Not Going Into Conversion
The primary effectiveness endpoint is the surgical success rate, defined as the procedure not going into conversion. Conversion is defined as the switch from a robotic assisted approach using the Hugo system to a robotic assisted approach utilizing an FDA cleared robotic-assisted device, laparoscopic, or open surgery.

Ran from Dec 2022 to primary completion in Oct 2024, 21 months.
Results were first posted in Nov 2025, 1 year 1 month after primary completion.
Of 244 interventional studies with no phase under Urinary Bladder Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 39 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 20 and three quarters within 69. This study's 21 months is below that.
