Tissue heart valves are biological heart valves used in replacement surgeries, designed to function such as natural heart valves as an alternative to mechanical ones.
The primary types of tissue heart valves are stented and stentless valves. Stented tissue heart valves are bioprosthetic valves reinforced with a metal or polymer frame (stent) to provide structural support and simplify implantation during valve replacement procedures. These valves come in various types, including aortic, mitral, tricuspid, and pulmonary valves. They are utilized by multiple end-users, such as hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and other medical facilities.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp increase in U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the medical equipment sector, especially for imported components used in imaging machines, surgical-grade stainless steel, and disposable plastics. With hospitals and clinics pushing back against price increases, manufacturers are facing margin pressure. The situation is further complicated by regulatory challenges, as switching suppliers due to tariffs often necessitates re-certification of medical devices, leading to delays in market entry. In response, companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing key components, ramping up domestic production of standardized items, and accelerating research into more cost-effective materials.
The tissue heart valves market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides tissue heart valves market statistics, including the tissue heart valves industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the tissue heart valves market share, detailed tissue heart valves market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the tissue heart valves industry. This tissue heart valves market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The tissue heart valves market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $1.48 billion in 2024 to $1.52 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases, rising healthcare expenditure, increasing elderly population, increase in cardiac & pathological disorders, and growing incidences of heart diseases.
The tissue heart valves market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.68 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, the rise in popularity of sutureless procedures, the growing aging population, the growing demand for cardiovascular treatments, and increasing healthcare investments. Major trends in the forecast period include technological innovations, innovative culture systems, advancements in imaging technologies, advancements in surgical techniques, and expansion in emerging market.
The forecast of 2.6% growth over the next five years indicates a slight reduction of 0.1% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through supply chain disruptions for bovine pericardial tissue and stent mounting components, sourced from key regions such as Australia and Brazil, could lead to shortages in cardiac replacement valves.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is expected to drive the growth of the tissue heart valves market in the coming years. CVDs, which include conditions such as heart attacks, strokes, and hypertension, are among the leading causes of mortality worldwide. This rise is primarily driven by unhealthy lifestyles, aging populations, increased prevalence of risk factors, poor diets, physical inactivity, smoking, stress, and urbanization, all contributing to higher rates of heart-related disorders. Tissue heart valves play a crucial role in treating cardiovascular diseases by offering a biocompatible, durable, and less thrombogenic solution for patients requiring valve replacement, ultimately improving long-term heart function and reducing complications. For example, in September 2024, a report by the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) stated that approximately 6.7 million Americans aged 20 and older are living with heart failure (HF), with projections estimating this number to rise to 8.7 million by 2030, 10.3 million by 2040, and 11.4 million by 2050. This rising burden of CVDs is fueling the demand for tissue heart valves.
Companies operating in the tissue heart valves market are focusing on technological innovations to improve patient outcomes. For instance, in June 2024, Medtronic plc, an Ireland-based technology company, launched the Avalus Ultra valve, a next-generation surgical aortic tissue valve designed to enhance ease of use during implantation and support long-term patient management. This valve, built on a decade of clinical experience with the Avalus valve, features a low profile, a polyetheretherketone (PEEK) base frame for consistent circularity, and an industry-leading Effective Orifice Area (EOA) to improve blood flow. Additionally, it includes a radiopaque coil for better visibility in future valve-in-valve procedures, ensuring long-term durability for patients with aortic stenosis.
In February 2024, Foldax Inc., a US-based medical device company, partnered with Dolphin Life Science India LLP to manufacture the Tria polymer mitral surgical heart valve in India. This collaboration enables in-country production and distribution, making advanced heart valve solutions more accessible to patients. Dolphin Life Science India LLP is an India-based life sciences company specializing in heart valve manufacturing and distribution.
