The use of laser technology in the field of urologic surgery has experienced great advances over the past 20 years. Since the beginning of this century robotic technology has landed in a determined manner in our specially and every day will be more and more indications on what is going to have a final deployment. The current combination of laser and surgical robots, can be focused on two distinct areas, but possibly complementary, the use of lasers to guide the surgical procedure, what we might call "landmarks and structures recognition" or "positioning" and laser use because of its ablative ability minimizing blood loss and increasing the resection accuracy. This paper reviews most recent articles and contributions on the combination of these two technologies.
