The artificial tendons and ligaments market is segmented on the basis of application and region. By application, the market is segmented into knee injuries, shoulder injuries, foot and ankle injuries, and other injuries (spine and hip injuries). The knee injuries segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing incidence of knee injuries, advantages of artificial tendons and ligaments as compared to autografts and allografts, and rising participation in sports.
Geographically, the artificial tendons and ligaments market in Europe is expected to account for the largest share in 2018. Some of the factors driving the growth of this regional segment are the increasing number of government initiatives to encourage sports, increasing sports-related injuries, rising cases of knee replacements, the growing medical devices industry in Europe, and minimal out-of-pocket expenditure for medical devices.
However, the Asia Pacific region is slated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Factors such as Japan’s growing healthcare industry, government initiatives to increase the number of doctors, favorable tax policy in China, government initiatives to support sports medicine in India, and funding initiatives and grants to promote sports in Australia
