Cancellous bone, also referred to as trabecular or spongy bone, is a type of bone tissue with a porous, lattice-like structure. It is primarily located at the ends of long bones, inside the vertebrae, and within the pelvis, ribs, and skull. This type of bone is lighter and less dense than cortical (compact) bone, offering structural support and flexibility while reducing weight.
The main product types of cancellous sponge include collagen-based, hydroxyapatite-based, chitosan-based, and polyethylene glycol-based sponges. Collagen-based sponges, derived from the natural protein collagen, act as a scaffold that mimics the bone matrix, aiding in bone growth and healing. The materials used range from natural and synthetic to composite, with applications spanning orthopedic surgeries, dental procedures, wound care, plastic surgery, and more. The end users of these products include hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, specialty clinics, and other healthcare facilities.
The cancellous sponge market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides cancellous sponge market statistics, cancellous sponge industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a cancellous sponge market share, detailed cancellous sponge market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the cancellous sponge industry. This cancellous sponge market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The cancellous sponge market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.28 billion in 2024 to $6.65 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rise in the number of orthopedic surgeries, global aging population, innovations in bone graft materials and surgical techniques, increase in prevalence of bone disorders and injuries, growing healthcare expenditures.
The cancellous sponge market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.3 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growth in minimally invasive surgery, research and development in bioengineered cancellous sponges, increasing healthcare infrastructure, rising prevalence of osteoporosis, increasing government initiatives. Major trends in the forecast period include developing bioactive and biodegradable cancellous sponges, 3D printing technology, increased use in dental implants, regenerative medicine applications.
The increasing number of orthopedic surgeries is expected to drive the growth of the cancellous sponge market. Orthopedic surgeries involve procedures on the musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. The rise in orthopedic surgeries is due to factors such as a growing prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders, advancements in surgical techniques and technology, and a heightened focus on enhancing patient quality of life through effective pain management and functional recovery. Cancellous sponges promote osteoinduction, a process where immature cells are recruited and encouraged to develop into bone-forming cells (osteoblasts), aiding in the regeneration of bone tissue in areas with significant bone loss or damage. For example, in March 2023, the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, a US-based orthopedic organization, projected that the annual volume of primary total joint arthroplasties (TJAs) will increase by 70% to reach 2,257,326. This growth will be driven by higher demand for total hip arthroplasties (THAs), expected to reach 1,219,852, compared to total knee arthroplasties (TKAs), projected at 1,037,474 by 2050. Consequently, the rise in orthopedic surgeries is fueling the growth of the cancellous sponge market.
Major companies in the cancellous sponge market are introducing innovative products, such as allografts and cortical fibers, to provide more effective solutions for bone grafting procedures. An allograft is a tissue graft obtained from a genetically non-identical donor, commonly used in bone repair surgeries to facilitate healing without the need for tissue harvesting from the patient. Cortical fibers are dense and strong bone tissues that provide structural support and stability during bone grafting. For example, in May 2024, Isto Biologics, a US-based biologics and cellular therapy company, launched Fibrant Liberty, a cutting-edge allograft solution designed for bone grafting procedures. This product features a dry blend of robust cortical fibers and mineralized cortical cancellous chips, allowing for quick hydration and adaptability to various surgical applications. Fibrant Liberty is intended to enhance handling, prevent graft migration, and promote optimal bone growth.
In January 2023, Orthofix, a US-based medical device company specializing in spinal, orthopedic, bone growth, and motion preservation products, merged with SeaSpine for an undisclosed amount. This merger results in a major global entity in spine and orthopedics, combining their expertise in biologics, spinal hardware, and orthopedic solutions. SeaSpine, a US-based company, provides a variety of demineralized cancellous sponge products designed to support bone healing and fusion in orthopedic and spinal procedures.
