A male patient underwent an aquablation procedure for symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (bph).Procept biorobotics corporation (procept) became aware that during jet alignment, the aquabeam robotic system generated an "e22 - motorpack error".Multiple troubleshooting steps to clear the error were unsuccessful.A second aquabeam handpiece was used which resolved the error.The treating surgeon proceeded with the aquablation procedure and during the first treatment pass, the patient moved significantly enough that required removal of the aquabeam handpiece and the ecbp-1 trus probe.Once the ecbp-1 trus probe was removed, blood was noted, which the treating surgeon attributed to a hemorrhoid near the anus.No intervention was needed for the bleeding.The treating surgeon proceeded to convert the procedure to transurethral resection of the prostate (turp).It was reported that the patient was discharged with no further concerns.
