@gzr63 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Are you able to get to Dr. Prieto at Mayo Clinic? It sounds like he is the "go to" person!

Any surgical procedure has a criteria list that must be met for the best possible outcome. Sometimes we have one or two things that don't line up correctly, and must forego that route. Do you think that might be your situation?

@gingerw Possibly (Rochester).
None of multiple robotic urologists has bothered to deliniate their contraindications vs. (their) preferences? Since I've obviously stated my preference, I presume it's irrelevant to theirs? All the published medical texts establish HALN as the current benchmark, even going back decades before current technology and revised/shared techniques.
