SAN JOSE, Calif., March 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PROCEPT BioRobotics (Nasdaq: PRCT), today announced the international expansion of the HYDROS Robotic System, the company’s next-generation platform for delivering Aquablation therapy to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

HYDROS is the first AI-enabled robotic platform designed specifically for the treatment of BPH with Aquablation therapy. Leveraging AI-interpreted, real-time ultrasound imaging and advanced image-guided treatment planning, the system enables surgeons to deliver personalized, anatomy-specific therapy with robotic precision and reproducibility. The platform is designed to support scalable adoption across care settings while maintaining consistent procedural execution.

Aquablation therapy offers a complete solution for men living with BPH. A robust body of clinical evidence continues to demonstrate Aquablation delivers durable symptom relief while preserving sexual and urinary function, outcomes that are critically important to patients.

“Many men living with BPH remain on long-term medication or delay surgery because they are concerned about potential trade-offs between symptom relief and side effects,” said Larry Wood, President & CEO, PROCEPT BioRobotics. “The HYDROS Robotic System expands international access to a clinically validated, next-generation AI-enabled robotic solution that delivers durable symptom relief while preserving quality of life. We are proud to bring this innovation to physicians and patients across the UK and to continue expanding our international footprint.”

“The HYDROS Robotic System brings AI-enabled, real-time ultrasound-guidance and robotic assisted treatment planning to NICE-recommended Aquablation therapy in the UK, supporting precise, anatomy-specific treatment,” said Mr. Neil Barber, Consultant Urological Surgeon. “By combining surgeon judgement with robotic precision, Aquablation with HYDROS enables durable symptom relief and preservation of quality-of-life outcomes, including sexual and urinary function and meaningfully expands surgical choice for men living with BPH.”

About Aquablation Therapy
Aquablation therapy is the first and only ultrasound guided, robotic-assisted, heat-free waterjet for the treatment of BPH. The system’s real-time ultrasound imaging provides the surgeon with a multi-dimensional view of the prostate enabling personalized treatment planning tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy. The surgeon can specify which areas of the prostate to remove while preserving the anatomy that controls erectile function, ejaculatory function and continence. Once the treatment plan is mapped by the surgeon, the predictable robotic-assisted execution enables prostate tissue to be removed in a precise, targeted and controlled fashion.
