The next-generation surgical robotics market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $5.03 billion in 2024 to $6.29 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the rising adoption of minimally invasive surgical techniques, growing demand for precision-driven procedures, an expanding geriatric population, development of hospital and surgical infrastructure, and increasing awareness of the benefits of robotic-assisted surgery.

The next-generation surgical robotics market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.12 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investment in healthcare automation, rising demand for outpatient and minimally invasive surgical procedures, expansion of surgical robotics training programs, favorable reimbursement frameworks, and a growing emphasis on precision surgery. Major trends in the forecast period include miniaturization of robotic platforms, development of autonomous surgical robots, increased research and development activities, innovations in haptic feedback and imaging technologies, and advancements in cloud-enabled surgical systems.

The increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries is expected to drive growth in the next-generation surgical robotics market. Minimally invasive surgeries, performed through small incisions using specialized tools, reduce patient pain, lower the risk of infection, shorten hospital stays, and accelerate recovery times. Next-generation surgical robotics further enhances these procedures by providing surgeons with improved precision, better visualization, and superior instrument control, reducing errors, limiting tissue damage, and enabling faster patient recovery. For example, in March 2023, the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons reported that approximately 31,057 minimally invasive cosmetic surgeries were performed in the UK in 2022, a 102% increase from the previous year highlighting the growing demand for minimally invasive procedures.

Companies in the next-generation surgical robotics market are focusing on advanced orthopedic robotic platforms to improve precision and support minimally invasive techniques. Orthopedic robotic platforms assist surgeons in performing precise bone and joint surgeries, enhancing implant placement and supporting complex procedures. For instance, in March 2025, Stryker Corporation launched Mako 4, the fourth generation of its Mako SmartRobotics system. This platform integrates 3D CT-based planning and the fourth-generation Q Guidance System, enabling personalized surgical planning, real-time intraoperative guidance, and enhanced workflow efficiency for hip, knee, spine, and shoulder procedures, including robotic hip revisions.

In August 2024, KARL STORZ Endoscopy America Inc. acquired Asensus Surgical Inc. for \$0.35 per share in cash to expand its digital and robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery capabilities. Asensus Surgical offers a next-generation robotic surgery platform, and this acquisition allows KARL STORZ to integrate advanced performance-guided surgery systems, enhancing precision, efficiency, and outcomes across minimally invasive surgical procedures.

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.

Next-generation surgical robotics are advanced robotic platforms designed to assist surgeons in performing highly precise, minimally invasive procedures. These systems combine enhanced imaging, improved dexterity, and intelligent software to increase surgical accuracy, reduce errors, and improve patient outcomes, enabling complex operations with greater control and faster recovery times.

The main component types of next-generation surgical robotics include systems, accessories, and services.
