Market Overview

Global Surgical Trocars  Market is expected to reach at a high CAGR during the forecast period 2024-2031.

A sterile arrangement on the surgical trocar permits many surgical equipment or camera ports to enter through the abdominal area at the same time. A trocar allows a surgeon to gain access to the abdomen or peritoneal cavity. Trocars are also used by doctors to treat ascites and hydrothorax, as well as to implant slow-release hormone pellets beneath the skin. 

Trocars are used by embalmers to drain fluids and gas from the corpses of the descendants they are preparing. The trocar method has typically been used to drain fluids and install tubes and drains. It is also used to position optical instruments for laparoscopy, arthroscopy, and video-assisted thoracoscopy. It is appropriate for big, superficial, easily accessible target areas.

Furthermore, the surgical trocars market is driven by various factors like, a rise in surgical procedures, a rise in  Geriatric Population Increasing Awareness Among Healthcare Professionals, a rise in R&D and Innovation, Emerging Markets Adoption and others will drive the market growth during the forecast period. Medtronic PLC, B. Braun Melsungen AG, Johnson & Johnson (Ethicon), LaproSurge, Molnlycke Health Care AB and others are the few significant key players in this market.

Market Dynamics

Rise in  Demand for Minimally-Invasive Surgery

The rise in demand for minimally invasive surgery is one of the significant factors that drive the market to grow during the forecast period. Minimally invasive surgery uses unique small tools to allow surgeons to perform procedures through smaller incisions than what would normally be used for traditional open surgery. Instead of large incisions, the pediatric surgeon makes several small, 1/10-to-3/16-inch (3-5mm) incisions and inserts narrow tubes called trocars. Carbon dioxide gas may be used to inflate the area, creating a space inside between the organs and the skin.

Rise in the Prevalence of Chronic Diseases 

The rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases is one of the key drivers which leads to surgical procedures for some diseases where this surgical trocar is utilized which indeed leads to the growth of this market during the forecast period. Obesity is one of the diseases as the disease rises the demand for surgical procedures for effective treatments increases which aid in the surgical trocars market to grow during the forecast.

For instance, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Obesity is a global health issue affecting four Billion people annually, with the rate nearly doubled since 1980. By 2030, one in five women and one in seven men will have obesity. Obesity is more prevalent than underweight in every region, except sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. The US obesity rate increased by 3% during the COVID-19 pandemic, increasing the risk of severe illness and hospitalization. Obesity is linked to 30% to 53% of new diabetes cases annually in the US.

Technological Advancements in The Field of Laparoscopy

Laparoscopic access procedures have advanced significantly in recent years. It's been an extended procedure from reusable bladed trocars to disposable bladed and bladeless trocars, from dilating trocars to bladeless optical-view trocars that let the surgeon watch the trocar as it passes through the abdominal wall layer by layer. Everything has been done with the same goal in mind: making a safe entrance and leaving the smallest possible defect in the abdominal wall fascia once the trocar has been withdrawn, which has been accomplished through a variety of changes.

Rise In the Geriatric Population

Older adults might have a higher risk of complications from traditional open surgeries due to reduced physiological reserves and slower healing processes. Therefore, there is often a preference for minimally invasive surgeries in the elderly population. Surgical trocars are crucial components of these procedures as they enable surgeons to access the surgical site through small incisions, reducing trauma and recovery time.

Thus, the rise in the geriatric population is likely to drive the demand for trocars in the industry as the geriatric population is more prone to chronic diseases, and most of the surgical procedures are performed on the geriatric population 

For instance, according to the article published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, titled 'Psychological distress among elderly surgical patients who had their surgery postponed during the COVID-19 pandemic' in 2022, approximately 53% of all surgical procedures are performed on patients over the age of 65.

Complications Associated with The Use of Trocars

Immediate complications include vascular damage, bowel/visceral damage, subcutaneous emphysema, air embolus, and difficulty entering the peritoneal cavity. Bowel and vascular damage are frequently caused by the blind placement of the main trocar or Veress needle. However, subsequent trocar insertion might result in damage if the trocars are not correctly visualized during their insertion.

Furthermore, the cost of Trocars and accompanying laparoscopic equipment can be rather exorbitant, restricting their use in some healthcare settings, particularly in poor countries with limited budgets. Thus, the high cost of surgical trocars will also lead to hindering the growth of the surgical trocars market during the forecast period.

Market Segmentation Analysis

The global surgical trocars market is segmented based on product type tip type, application, end-user and region.

The Laparoscopic Surgery From The Application Segment Accounted for Approximately 42.5% of the Surgical Trocars  Share

The laparoscopic surgery from the application segment with around 42.5% is expected to dominate during the forecast period. Trocars are essential instruments used in laparoscopic surgeries. They serve as entry points for the surgical instruments and cameras to access the surgical site.

For instance, according to the  International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery 2022, a total of 4,05,328 liposuction surgeries were performed with revenue of 13% out of which 385,413 were performed on women and 19,593 in men. Also by age group the count between 36-50 2,31,580 liposuction surgeries were performed and 88,730 between 51-70. Thus rise in the prevalence of Laparoscopic Surgery will drive the segment growth during the forecast period.

Market Geographical Share

North America Accounted for Approximately 38.4% of the Market Share

North America is estimated to hold about 38.4 % of the total market share throughout the forecast period. Within North America, the United States holds a sizable market share and is likely to dominate during the projection period. This is due to the significant advancements, launches by key players, rising rates of cancer, urological disorders, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, among others.

For instance,  in March 2022, the Dutch Ophthalmic Research Center (DORC), a Netherlands-based manufacturer of automated interferometers and inspection equipment, launched EVA NEXUS. With the introduction of EVA NEXUS, numerous advancements in surgical effectiveness and efficiency are made, including SmartlOP, which integrates with the current EquiPhaco technology for improved control in cataract surgery.

 It includes a revolutionary trocar cannula system called EVA AVETA. It includes a chamfered cannula for easier insertion, a laser-etched shaft for scleral retention, a push-fit connection, and a Hi-Flow infusion connection.

The major global players in the market include Medtronic PLC, B. Braun Melsungen AG, Johnson & Johnson (Ethicon), LaproSurge, Molnlycke Health Care AB, Purple Surgical, Teleflex Incorporated, The Cooper Companies Inc, Unimax Medical Systems, Fannin ltd and among others.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic has had several consequences for the healthcare industry, particularly the trocars market. Many healthcare institutions postponed or cancelled elective procedures during the early stages of the pandemic to prioritise resources for Covid-19 patients and reduce the risk of viral transmission. As a result, demand for trocars and other surgical devices used in non-urgent surgeries has decreased.

The pandemic disrupted the worldwide supply chain, disrupting the manufacture and delivery of medical equipment such as Trocars. Travel restrictions, manufacturing closures, and logistical issues hampered the seamless flow of products, potentially contributing to delivery delays and price increases. While elective treatments were postponed, there was an increase in demand for emergency surgeries associated with COVID-19 problems and other urgent medical procedures.
