Microsurgery and Super-Microsurgery Trends
- Growing number of surgical procedures fuels market growth
The growing number of surgical procedures is the primary driver for the growth of the market. For instance, 3646 surgical procedures are performed in India each year. The gap between India and other emerging countries has narrowed in recent years, as the Indian government has launched several programs to improve access to healthcare in India. Over the last decade, a small number of independent medical device companies have invested in R&D, manufacturing skills, and mergers and acquisitions to differentiate themselves and compete in domestic and export markets against global corporations and others. Moreover, orthopedic trauma and musculoskeletal oncology experts collaborate with microsurgeons to undertake reconstructions following accidents and tumor resections. Microsurgery is a specialized method with broad clinical application that is used in many fields of modern surgery. It requires precise surgical skill and sophisticated operating concepts since it includes the manipulation of very small diameter structures. Microsurgery is frequently employed by orthopedic surgeons while performing nerve grafting and repair, free tissue transfers, and digit or extremity replantation. Furthermore, the rising number of kidney and heart transplant surgeries, as well as rising awareness of the benefits of the transplantation process, such as increased energy levels, increased lifespan, a better quality of life, and others, are the major factors predicted to boost the growth of the market.
