Autonomous Surgical Robotics Market Report 2025

The autonomous surgical robotics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.23 billion in 2024 to $2.61 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.1%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries, rising incidence of surgical complications, shortage of skilled surgeons, growing healthcare expenditure, and expanding geriatric population.

The autonomous surgical robotics market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.84 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.8%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the expanding applications of surgical robotics, increasing emphasis on personalized medicine, growing demand for precision and accuracy in surgical procedures, rising number of robotic surgery training programs, and heightened awareness of surgical outcomes and precision. Key trends in the forecast period include the development of autonomous suturing systems, integration of robotics with imaging technologies, integration with hospital information systems, innovations in soft-tissue robotics, advancements in miniaturized robotic instruments, and the creation of surgical robots for specialized medical fields.

The increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries is expected to drive the growth of the autonomous surgical robotics market. Minimally invasive procedures are medical interventions performed through small incisions or openings, reducing patient trauma and recovery time. Their popularity is rising due to benefits such as shorter recovery periods, lower risks of complications, less pain, and minimal scarring, making them attractive to patients seeking faster and safer treatment options. Autonomous surgical robotics supports minimally invasive procedures by providing precise and consistent robotic assistance, reducing the need for large incisions, enhancing surgical accuracy, and improving patient outcomes while minimizing recovery time and surgeon fatigue. For example, in June 2024, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, a US-based non-profit organization, reported a 7% increase in minimally invasive procedures in 2023 compared to 2022. Consequently, the growing demand for minimally invasive surgeries is boosting the autonomous surgical robotics market.

Companies in the autonomous surgical robotics market are focusing on advanced innovations, such as fully autonomous guidance systems, to improve precision, optimize surgical outcomes, and reduce surgeon fatigue. Fully autonomous guidance systems are intelligent robotic platforms that assist surgeons by autonomously performing pre-planned surgical steps with high accuracy. For instance, in July 2023, Stryker Corporation, a US-based medical technology company, launched the Ortho Q Guidance system, an advanced robotic surgical platform for orthopedic procedures. This system features AI-driven automation capable of executing bone resections and implant placements without manual intervention, incorporates a high-resolution camera with enhanced optical tracking, a dual-PC architecture for real-time data processing, and implant-agnostic software compatible with express knee, precision knee, and versatile hip procedures. It also provides real-time intraoperative adjustments and predictive analytics, ensuring precise alignment and minimizing human error.

In March 2025, NVIDIA Corporation, a US-based technology company, partnered with GE HealthCare Technologies Inc. to advance autonomous diagnostic imaging using physical AI. The collaboration aims to develop AI-powered autonomous imaging systems, including X-ray and ultrasound platforms, that can automate tasks such as patient positioning and image acquisition, improving diagnostic efficiency and accessibility worldwide. GE HealthCare Technologies Inc., based in the US, specializes in imaging and surgical robotics for autonomous medical systems.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The fast surge in U.S. tariffs and the trade tensions that followed in spring 2025 are heavily affecting the medical equipment sector, particularly for imported imaging machine components, surgical-grade stainless steel, and plastic disposables. Hospitals and clinics resist price hikes, pressuring manufacturers’ margins. Regulatory hurdles compound the problem, as tariff-related supplier changes often require re-certification of devices, delaying time-to-market. Companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing critical parts, expanding domestic production of commoditized items, and accelerating R&D in cost-efficient materials.

Autonomous surgical robotics refers to advanced robotic systems that can perform surgical tasks with minimal or no human intervention by utilizing artificial intelligence and real-time data. These systems are designed to improve surgical precision, minimize human error, and enhance patient outcomes by automating complex procedures.

The primary types of autonomous surgical robotics include interventional surgical robots, assisted surgical robots, minimally invasive surgical robots, and others. Interventional surgical robots are sophisticated systems developed to aid in minimally invasive procedures by accurately guiding instruments through small incisions or natural orifices, often using image guidance. These robots are applied across various surgical specialties, including urology, orthopedics, cardiology, neurology, and more, with key end-users such as hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, and other healthcare facilities.
