Advancements in spine surgery have dramatically enhanced minimally invasive techniques, prominently through integrating robotic systems. Although pedicle screw placement remains the most widespread application of this technology, new developments are emerging to create innovative future avenues for these tools. This review explores the promising applications of robotic technology in minimally invasive spinal procedures, ranging from assistance with laminectomies and vertebroplasty to pain management and treatment of spinal tumors. We also discuss the potential for integrating artificial intelligence and augmented reality with robotic systems. If the current trajectory of research and innovation continues, there is promise in creating fully autonomous robotic systems that can revolutionize spine surgery by processing, planning, and performing procedures without heavy reliance on the surgeon.
