The cruciate ligament repair procedures market size is forecast to increase by USD 4.67 billion, at a CAGR of 8.51% between 2023 and 2028. The market is witnessing significant growth due to the rising incidence of road accidents leading to knee injuries. The lucrative opportunities in emerging economies, particularly in Asia Pacific, are attracting market players to expand their footprint.
Ambulatory surgery centers are increasingly adopting advanced technologies, such as the BEAR Implant and cemented implants from companies like Arthrex and Oregon Health Sciences University, to offer minimally invasive procedures and enhance patient outcomes. However, the shortage of skilled orthopedic surgeons remains a major challenge for market growth. These factors are shaping the future of the market.
The market is witnessing significant growth due to the rising prevalence of knee ligament injuries, particularly ACL injuries. According to the National Safety Council, over 200,000 ACL injuries occur annually in the US alone. These injuries often lead to joint instability and increase the risk of developing osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Synovial fluid, which lubricates the knee joint, plays a crucial role in the healing process. Orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine specialists perform cruciate ligament repair surgeries in hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers using various implant types, including cemented implants, cement-less implants, partial implants, and revision implants.
Trauma is a leading cause of cruciate ligament injuries, making them common among athletes and the elderly. Bear implant, Oregon Health, and Michigan State University are some institutions at the forefront of research and development in this field. Therapies and devices used in cruciate ligament repair include arthroscopic procedures, physical therapy, and bracing. The market is expected to grow further due to the increasing number of orthopaedic clinics and ambulatory surgical centers offering these procedures. However, challenges such as high costs and potential complications, including infection and implant failure, may hinder market growth.
The market research report provides comprehensive data (region-wise segment analysis), with forecasts and estimates in "USD billion" for the period 2024-2028, as well as historical data from 2018-2022 for the following segments.
The anterior cruciate ligament repair segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), a crucial component of the knee joint, requires surgical intervention when torn or injured. ACL repair procedures involve the replacement of damaged cruciate muscles with a tissue graft. Two types of grafts are utilized in this process: autografts and allografts. An autograft involves transferring tissue from one part of the body to another within the same individual, such as bone marrow or skin grafts. Conversely, an allograft entails the transplantation of an organ, cells, or tissue from one person to another of the same species. Notable market participants in the ACL repair segment include Smith & Nephew Plc and Zimmer Biomet Holdings Inc. These entities contribute significantly to the advancement and provision of innovative solutions for ACL repair procedures.

The North American region accounted for the largest share of the market in the past few years and is projected to maintain this trend throughout the forecast period. The US and Canada are the primary contributors to the market in this region, driven by the increasing adoption of cruciate ligament repair procedures, advanced healthcare infrastructure, a high prevalence of knee diseases and associated risk factors, and the growing number of surgeries performed by orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine specialists in hospitals.
Our researchers analyzed the data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The growing incidence of road accidents is the key driver of the market. The National Safety Council reports that road accidents result in approximately 1.25 million fatalities and 20-50 million injuries annually. Among these injuries, knee ligament damages, particularly to the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL), are common due to the impact of sudden deceleration or the unnatural positions caused by vehicle crumpling during accidents. These injuries can lead to chronic conditions such as arthritis, necessitating cruciate ligament repair procedures. Synovial fluid, which lubricates the joints, can be affected, leading to joint inflammation and pain. Crucially, cruciate ligament repair procedures are essential for restoring mobility and functionality to the affected knee.
Lucrative opportunities in emerging economies are the upcoming trend in the market. The market is experiencing significant growth in emerging economies due to the increasing demand for medical devices and the expanding middle-class population. By 2022, approximately one-third of global healthcare spending is projected to originate from these economies, including China and India. The National Safety Council reports that knee ligament injuries are common, particularly in sports and accidents, leading to a high demand for cruciate ligament repair procedures. Synovial fluid, a vital component of the knee joint, plays a crucial role in the healing process. Moreover, the rise in arthritis cases, particularly in the aging population, further increases the need for such procedures.
As a result, medical device manufacturers are focusing on developing cost-effective solutions to cater to the growing demand in these markets. The use of advanced technologies, such as arthroscopic procedures, is becoming increasingly popular due to their minimally invasive nature and quicker recovery times.
A shortage of skilled orthopedic surgeons is a key challenge affecting the market growth. The National Safety Council reports that knee ligament injuries, including cruciate ligament damages, are common, particularly in sports and physical activities. Cruciate ligament repair procedures are essential for restoring knee functionality and preventing complications such as arthritis. However, the success rate of these procedures heavily relies on the expertise of orthopedic surgeons. The orthopedic workforce is insufficient in several developing countries, and even in developed nations like the US, the shortage of skilled orthopedic surgeons is projected to worsen by 2025. This deficiency is more pronounced among surgeons specialized in cruciate ligament repair procedures. Synovial fluid, which lubricates the knee joint, plays a crucial role in the healing process.
Ensuring an adequate supply of skilled orthopedic surgeons is vital to address the increasing demand for cruciate ligament repair procedures and improve patient outcomes.
