Research and Markets: US, Europe and Japan Orthopedic Soft Tissue Surgical Procedures Market: Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2014 - 2020


Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/lz5t2p/u_s_europe_and) has announced the addition of the "US, Europe and Japan Orthopedic Soft Tissue Surgical Procedures Market: Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2014 - 2020" report to their offering.

Orthopedic soft tissue repair is a branch of medicine concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of damaged muscles, tendons and ligaments. Soft tissue injuries are commonly witnessed in adults, due to trauma, overuse of the tendon and recreational activities. Also, repetitive activities in sports lead to thinning of muscles over time, ultimately leading to injury. Trend of sports activities such as football, volleyball, cricket, baseball and others is increasing in the regions such as the US, Europe and Japan. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) there are around 2 million sports injuries, 50,000 doctor visits and 30,000 hospitalizations in the US each year. Thus, high incidence of sports related injuries increase the demand for orthopedic soft tissue repair surgeries in these developed regions. Similarly, according to the United Nations, developed regions such as Europe and North America (the US and Canada) have highest percentage of aged population and are expected to grow at a higher rate in the future. This population bracket which is at high risk for fractures and injuries would increase the demand for surgical intervention.

Likewise, growing trend of minimally invasive surgeries, increasing number of sports related association and advancements in orthopedic sugical products is also anticipated to stimulate the growth of orthopedic soft tissue surgical procedures market in the U.S, Europe and Japan. However, asymptomatic nature of soft tissue injuries such as anterior cruciate ligament rupture, achilles and lateral epicondylitis and treatment of these ruptures through conservative therapy would limit the market growth during the forecast period.



The market of orthopedic soft tissue surgical procedures is categorized into surgeries such as rotator cuff repair, vaginal prolapse, lateral epicondylitis, achilles tendinosis repair, gluteal tendon and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Amongst these, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction held the largest share of the market in 2013. It is witnessed that approximately more than 30% of the cases reported with ACL ruptures require surgical intervention. Thus, high rate of ACL surgical intervention coupled with high cost of the treatment are estimated as the key reasons for the dominance of this market segment. Rotator cuff repair market is expected to grow at a moderate CAGR in the future due to rising number of rotator cuff injuries and introduction of effective bioabsorbable products.
