# Medtronic Hugo RAS: Price, Availability & Status (2026)

Medtronic's Hugo RAS is da Vinci's main commercial competitor: FDA-cleared for urology (Dec 2025). Medtronic discloses no system count. The honest status.

## Price

_No verified price on record._

There is no consumer price. The Hugo RAS is enterprise B2B surgical equipment sold to hospitals on per-system contracts, so DEPLOY records zero price points.

## Availability

_Status: internal-only_

The Hugo RAS is sold to hospitals, not consumers. Medtronic does not disclose a Hugo installed-base count, so DEPLOY records honest absence rather than an invented number.

## Status

The Hugo RAS is a modular, multi-port teleoperated robotic-assisted-surgery system and the main commercial competitor to Intuitive's da Vinci. It is CE-marked in Europe (urology and gynecology, October 2021) and US FDA-cleared for urology only (December 2025: prostatectomy, nephrectomy, cystectomy); US general-surgery and gynecology indications are planned but not yet cleared. It is teleoperated with no shipped intraoperative AI. DEPLOY places Hugo in the verified-but-opaque tier: real regulatory clearance, but no public system-count disclosure, between Intuitive's transparent verified-at-scale and J&J's pre-market research.
