The introduction of Da Vinci (Intuitive Surgical, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, USA) robotic surgical system for radical prostatectomy (RP) has significantly changed the way we perform prostate cancer surgery (1). In a relatively short time, Da Vinci has become the major surgical approach for RP in the USA (2). Furthermore, the number of European hospitals that use this system is constantly increasing. Until recently, Da Vinci was the only available robotic surgical system for robotic radical prostatectomy (RRP), but now several manufacturers already have such a system or are in the process of developing it (3). Recently, the Senhance Surgical System (TransEnterix, Inc., Morrisville, NC, USA) robotic platform for abdominal, gynecological, and urological surgical procedures has been introduced (4-8). This platform is feasible and safe, and it is relatively easy to learn to operate it (6,9,10). Here, we present our initial experience with this new system for radical prostatectomy, with the first technical description and a video of the operation.
