Small Bone And Joint Devices Market Summary

The global small bone and joint devices market size was estimated at USD 5.1 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach USD 9.6 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 8.3% from 2020 to 2027. Market growth is primarily driven by the rising adoption of reconstructive surgeries, increasing prevalence of degenerative disorders such as osteoporosis and arthritis, and the growing number of injuries resulting from road accidents.

The increasing incidence of diabetic foot complications, along with the expanding geriatric population, further supports market expansion. According to the International Osteoporosis Foundation, in 2017, osteoporosis affected approximately 75 million people across the U.S., Europe, and Japan, with menopausal women being the most affected. It is estimated that 1 out of 3 women experience an osteoporotic fracture, which often necessitates surgical intervention. Additionally, diabetic foot disorders continue to be a major healthcare concern for patients with diabetes mellitus, driving demand for corrective and reconstructive devices.
