The global stone removal basket market size is anticipated to reach USD 782.4 Million by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 3.6% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising prevalence of nephrolithiasis across the world, an increase in the patient's preference for minimally invasive procedures, and growing geriatric population are anticipated to fuel the market growth of stone removal basket.
Over the past decade, the demand for minimally invasive surgeries (MIS) is increasing. Research results published by manufacturers (Ethicon Endo-Surgery, Inc.) suggest that minimally invasive surgeries are rapidly replacing invasive surgeries owing to the following factors such as higher patient satisfaction owing to lesser incision wounds, involve a relatively lesser number of hospital stays, and therefore are economically viable and involve a lesser number of postsurgical complications and lower mortality rates. This is expected to create opportunities for the market.
According to BioMed, the risk of getting nephrolithiasis increases with age and is more common in males compared to females. Moreover, kidney stone increases the risk of permanent kidney failure. According to a report by Cleveland Clinic, published in October 2022, approximately 750,000 citizens in the U.S. and around 2 million people worldwide are affected by kidney failure every year. Stones also increase the risk of getting kidney and urinary infection, resulting in the spreading of germs into the bloodstream. All the above-mentioned factors are expected to support the demand for surgery, thus promoting the market.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of elective surgeries were postponed. For instance, according to the African Journal of Urology in 2021, all types of elective urological procedures decreased significantly. This is expected to have a negative impact on the market. However, in the post-pandemic period, this scenario is changing. Most of the elective surgeries have been resumed. This is expected to boost the market in the post-pandemic period.
