Generalization of Sylvester-Gallai theorem

The Sylvester-Gallai theorem states that it is not possible to arrange a finite number of points so that a line through every two of them passes through a third unless they are all on a single line.

Is there any moder research that generalizes this theorem or finds some unexpected relations between this theorem and other parts of mathematics? Could you point out some references (preferably survey papers)?
