Highlights A systematic review of recent advances of microrobots applied in the musculoskeletal system with an emphasis on design strategies of microrobotic systems for tissue regeneration. The fabrication, motion and control, and image-guided delivery of microrobots in the musculoskeletal system are reviewed based on the up-to-date works. Prospects and challenges for future clinical translation of microrobots in the musculoskeletal system and regenerative medicine are discussed.
