Introduction

Abstract

Global arthroscopic procedures are on rise, owing to their mounting scope and usage in the diagnosis and treatment of ankles, elbow, wrists, and hips, apart from knees. The number of arthroscopic shoulder procedures is also expected to increase with the introduction of advanced knotless fixation systems.

The arthroscopy market is driven by increased utilization in sports-related injuries, as majority of orthopedic surgeons find arthroscopic surgeries to be less risky. Advancements in endoscopes, fluid management systems, cameras, powered instruments, displays, and hand tools are encouraging surgeons to prefer the use of arthroscopic devices to open procedures.

These and other market data and trends are presented in "Arthroscopes: World Market Review" by BizAcumen, Inc. Our reports are designed to be most comprehensive in geographic coverage and vertical market analyses.
