Artificial ligaments and tendons are being increasingly preferred over allografts and autografts due to their prominent advantages such as rapid recovery, less requirement of repeat procedures, and the obvious better availability in the market. Over the years a large amount of clinical evidence has been established recording the efficacy and safety of artificial ligaments and tendons, which too is augmenting the market growth and gathered interest of both new manufacturers and surgeons alike.  

"Artificial ligaments to find largest application in procedures for knee injuries"

Based on the applications of artificial tendons and ligaments, this market is segmented into knee injuries, foot & ankle injuries, shoulder injuries and others (hip and spine injuries). Among these, the application of artificial ligaments is the highest in knee injuries segment. Larger incidence of knee trauma, and significantly high impact on the daily life positively influence the market position of knee injuries segment. Furthermore, increased participation of the youth in sports and athletic activities and the resultant growth in incidence of knee injuries has also driven the market growth. The same trend is anticipated to continue through the forecast period and thus make knee injuries applications, the fastest growing segment throughout the forecast period. Evolution in surgery techniques shall also be instrumental in augmenting the growth of this segment.

"Growing awareness regarding minimally invasive surgeries to augment the position of ambulatory surgery centers"

Hospitals is the largest usage area where surgeries with artificial tendons and ligaments are performed. Greater patient footfall seeking advanced healthcare, higher rate of readmissions arising from prior complications from surgeries, presence of supportive and advanced infrastructure and greater presence of hospitals across all geographies drive the dominance of this segment. On the other hand, ambulatory surgery centers segment shall be advancing at a rapid growth rate during the forecast period. Decentralization of healthcare infrastructure has led large hospitals to set up their independent ambulatory centers at remote locations. Procedures at these locations are often performed at lower costs than those in hospitals. This has also in turn led to growing preference of patients to opt for procedures at ambulatory surgery centers, thereby driving swift growth of this segment.  

"Europe to dominate the global market contributed by high awareness"

Presence of a large patient pool and wide availability of skilled personnel for performing minimally invasive orthopedic procedures in the Germany, U.K. and France drive the dominance of Europe market. Higher healthcare expenditure, greater awareness and higher purchasing power of the geriatric population also contributes to the prominent position of Europe market. Asia Pacific will be witnessing faster market growth during the forecast period. The region houses the largest population globally base therefore presents a significant potential patient pool. The general population in the region is also increasingly participating in athletic and sports activities, therefore increasing the incidence of ligament injuries. All such factors, along with the evolving healthcare infrastructure and growing penetration of hospitals in rural regions shall drive the growth of Asia Pacific market.
