Orthofix Medical Inc., a prominent global spine and orthopedics company, has today announced the complete commercial launch of two access retractor systems to assist surgeons during minimally invasive spine (MIS) procedures. This announcement was made in April 2023. The Company's access solution portfolio has been expanded to encompass the estimated $1.8 billion MIS surgery market with the introduction of the Lattus™ Lateral Access System and the Fathom™ Pedicle-Based Retractor System. The Lattus Lateral Access System is designed to address five critical components of lateral spine surgery: access to the spine, preparation or excision of the disc, interbody placement, plate fixation, and seamless integration with intraoperative monitoring via an advanced interface. The Lattus Lateral Access System is engineered to be both user-friendly and adaptable. The "down-and-out" splay feature of the novel, independent blade retraction strength enables access to difficult anatomy. The Lattus retractor system optimizes the lateral procedure by providing a comprehensive suite of instrumentation that enables the use of the Company's innovative WaveForm® L and Regatta® NanoMetalene® interbody devices.


Surgical Retractors Market Trends



  • Increasing Number Of Surgical Procedures to Fuel Market Growth


An increase in surgical procedures is expected to support market growth during the forecast period. A surgical procedure is a medical procedure that involves instrumental incisions, usually performed in an operating room, and usually includes anesthesia and respiratory support. Different surgical interventions include cesarean section, cataract surgery, breast biopsy, bariatric surgery, etc. Hence, the increasing prevalence of cancer in the population is expected to increase the number of surgeries performed, which is expected to boost the market CAGR during the forecast period.


Additionally, the number of surgeries due to chronic conditions such as trauma, hip and knee replacements, and cardiovascular diseases requiring surgery is also increasing. This is the major growth factor for the surgical retractor market. A study published in June 2021 in the Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery found that 92,809 surgeries were classically classified as cardiac surgeries, of which 29,444 were isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgeries and 35,469 were isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgeries. The case was isolated heart valve surgery. The number of isolated heart transplants increased by 2% to 340 in 2020. Therefore, the high number of cardiac interventions and surgeries performed is expected to spur the growth of the surgical retractors market revenue over the forecast period.


Several research teams have focused on using 3D printing for manufacturing surgical retractors successfully. This will enable deployed medical staff to create a wide range of medical devices on demand, regardless of location. For instance, in August 2021, the first trial laparotomy was performed using the new TITAN CSR. It is a lightweight titanium surgical retractor for trauma and emergency procedures. It offers the speed of traditional self-retaining retractors and the exposure of a table-mounted system that does not require a post or table component.


Surgical Retractors Market Segment Insights


Surgical Retractors Product Types Insights


Based on product types, the surgical retractors market includes hand retractors and self-retaining retractors. The hand retractors segment dominated the market in 2022 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2023-2030. Hand retractors help maintain a desired position in a specific tissue area. Holding tissue during surgery requires the help of a surgeon or other medical professional and limits the free use of the surgeon's hands. Different types of retractors are available depending on the type of surgical procedure. Common retractors include abdominal, digital, neurological, orthopedic, rectal, thoracic, and ribbon retractors. Hence, rising design options for Surgical Retractors positively impact the market growth.


Surgical Retractors Design Insights


The surgical retractors market data based on the design includes fixed or flat frame retractors. The fixed or flat frame retractors surgical retractors segments held the majority share in 2022 with respect to the surgical retractors market revenue. This is due to blade-elevated tip retractors' improved traction and strong grip.


Surgical Retractors Product Usage Insights


Based on product usage, the surgical retractors market segmentation includes tissue handling and dissection. The tissue-handling Surgical Retractors segment held the majority share in 2022 with respect to the Surgical Retractors market revenue. This is attributed to the increased handling of tissues, organs, and ligaments around the surgical area with the increasing number of surgical procedures globally.
