A hernia occurs when an organ or fatty tissue squeezes through a weak spot in a surrounding muscle or connective tissue called fascia. The most common types of hernia are inguinal (inner groin), incisional (resulting from an incision), femoral (outer groin), umbilical (belly button), and hiatal (upper stomach). A hernia is usually treated with surgery. There are three main types of hernia surgery: open repair, laparoscopic (minimally invasive) repair, and robotic repair.

The global hernia repair devices market is estimated to account for US$ 6,381.7 Mn in terms of value in 2020 and is expected to reach US$ 10,587.5 Mn by the end of 2027.

Global Hernia Repair Devices Market: Drivers

Increasing prevalence of hernia is expected to propel growth of the global hernia repair devices market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the study, Prevalence and risk factors for abdominal wall hernia in the general Russian population’, published in May 2019, abdominal wall hernias were found in 20.9% of population.

Moreover, increasing geriatric population is also expected to boost demand for hernia repair market. For instance, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the U.S. geriatric population is expected to reach 77 million by 2034.

Polymer and Prosthetic Mesh held dominant position in the global hernia repair devices market in 2019, accounting for 42.2% share in terms of value, followed by Biologic materials respectively.

Global Hernia Repair Devices Market: Restraints

Stringent regulatory approval process is expected to hinder growth of the global hernia repair devices market.

Moreover, high cost of R&D of hernia repair devices is also expected to limit the market growth. A manufacturer of hernia repair device has to satisfy various regulatory and clinical requirements before launching the product. This prolonged phase of development and approvals forces medical devices manufacturers to maintain initial high cost of hernia repair devices. High cost of products results in lack of appropriate accessibility to various technological advancements, thereby hampering the uptake.
