Personalized knee implants are custom-designed knee replacement devices tailored to match the specific anatomical structure of each patient using advanced imaging, 3D modeling, and precision manufacturing technologies. These implants are intended to provide a better fit, improved comfort, and enhanced functionality compared to standard off-the-shelf options, promoting better joint alignment, more natural movement, and potentially quicker recovery following knee replacement surgery.
The primary types of personalized knee implants include femoral, tibial, and patellar components. The femoral component replaces the end of the thigh bone (femur) in the knee joint. Fixation options include cemented, cementless, and hybrid methods, and the implants are made from various material combinations such as metal-on-plastic, ceramic-on-plastic, metal-on-metal, and ceramic-on-ceramic. These implants are used in different surgical procedures, including primary, partial, and revision knee replacements, and are utilized by various end users, including hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and other healthcare facilities.
Tariffs have influenced the personalized knee implants market by increasing the cost of imported medical-grade metals, advanced imaging systems, and 3D printing materials, leading to higher production costs. This impact is most pronounced in regions heavily reliant on imports, such as North America and Europe, particularly affecting femoral and tibial segments. While tariffs pose cost challenges, they also encourage local manufacturing investments, innovation in cost-effective implant designs, and the development of domestic supply chains.
The personalized knee implants market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides personalized knee implants market statistics, including personalized knee implants industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a personalized knee implants market share, detailed personalized knee implants market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the personalized knee implants industry. This personalized knee implants 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 personalized knee implants market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.45 billion in 2025 to $2.62 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising geriatric population, increasing osteoarthritis prevalence, growing awareness about personalized healthcare, advancements in imaging technologies, increasing number of orthopedic surgeries.
The personalized knee implants market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.41 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising adoption of 3D printing, integration of ai in surgical planning, demand for minimally invasive procedures, technological advancements in implant materials, growth in emerging markets. Major trends in the forecast period include custom 3d-printed implants, patient-specific surgical planning, minimally invasive knee replacement, enhanced post-operative rehabilitation solutions, wearable technology integration.
The rising incidence of osteoarthritis is expected to drive the growth of the personalized knee implants market. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint condition characterized by the gradual breakdown of cartilage that cushions bone ends, resulting in pain, stiffness, and limited joint movement. This condition is becoming more common due to the aging population, as the risk of osteoarthritis increases with age because of the progressive wear and tear on joint cartilage. Personalized knee implants offer a solution by providing a tailored fit that corresponds to each patient's unique anatomy, which improves joint alignment, alleviates pain, and enhances mobility more effectively than standard implants. For example, in June 2024, a report by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, an Australian government agency, indicated that osteoarthritis accounted for 143,410 disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) (4.46 per 1,000 people) in 2023, along with 2,314 deaths (8.9 per 100,000) in 2022. These figures represented 2.5% of the total disease burden and 1.2% of all deaths in Australia. As a result, the growing prevalence of osteoarthritis is fueling the expansion of the personalized knee implants market.
Leading companies in the personalized knee implants market are advancing technologies such as robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty to improve surgical accuracy, implant alignment, patient-specific customization, and clinical outcomes. Robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty is a surgical technique where robotic systems assist surgeons in planning and performing knee replacements with enhanced precision. For instance, in April 2025, THINK Surgical, Inc., a US-based provider of robotic surgical systems, introduced and first utilized the Freedom Total Knee Implant, marking the initial use of Maxx Orthopedics' implant with the TMINI miniature robotic system. The Freedom implant delivers a high level of patient-specific customization while ensuring surgical efficiency. It features a bone-preserving design that minimizes bone removal during implantation and offers multiple size and configuration options to match the patient's anatomy. The system supports both cemented and cementless fixation and includes an optimized polyethylene insert for better wear resistance and smoother joint movement. Its design aims to replicate natural knee motion, provide stability throughout movement, and ensure long-term durability.
In September 2023, restor3d, a US-based company specializing in 3D-printed implant technology, acquired Conformis Inc. for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is intended to strengthen restor3d's capabilities in personalized joint replacement solutions and promote the use of 3D-printed orthopedic implants in the market. Conformis Inc. is a US-based medical technology firm focused on personalized knee implants.
