Abstract
The author proposes an alternative method of robotic docking for gynecologic total robotic hysterectomy surgery. In this side-docking method, the robot is docked on the side of the patient. The remainder of the patient and trocar setup is similar to traditional docking. The author has had an excellent experience with this method as there does not seem to be an increased risk of robotic arm collision as long as the surgeon respects the basic principle of maintaining at least an 8 to 10 cm distance between each of the instrument ports.
