Artificial Tendons and Ligaments Market Size, Share and Global Trend By Implant Type (Silastic-rod implant, Marlex mesh, Carbon-Fibre implant, Others), By Application (Knee Injuries, Shoulder Injuries, Foot & Ankle Injuries, Spine Injuries, Hip Injuries, Others), By End User (Hospitals, Specialty Clinics, Ambulatory Surgery Centers, Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032
KEY MARKET INSIGHTS
A tendon is a strong and flexible fibrous tissue attached to a bone. The ligament is a fibrous band of connective tissues that supports the internal organs and holds the bones together at the joints. The ligament is generally found in two types, the white ligament which is rich in collagenous fibers and yellow ligament rich in elastic fibers. An artificial tendon is a strengthening fabric that is utilized to supplant a torn tendon. Artificial tendons are composed of bio component fibers, such as a polyacrylonitrile fiber, polypropylene, PET (polyethylene terephthalate) or polyNaSS poly (sodium styrene sulfonate). Recently, a team research scientist from University of Utah biomedical have innovated a way to 3D print cells to produce human tissue such as ligaments and tendons which will help to replace the damaged ligaments, tendons or ruptured discs.
Increasing incidence of sports injuries, growing initiatives of governmental organizations to increase awareness about the artificial tendons and ligaments, and increase in R&D on artificial ligaments and tendons are the factors responsible to drive the growth of the global artificial tendons and ligaments market. Additionally, increasing preference for minimally invasive surgeries and increasing aging population leading to tendon and ligament damage issues will also help in the growth of the global artificial tendons and ligaments market.

Regional Analysis:
Geographically the global artificial tendons and ligaments market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America accounted for the largest share in the global market in 2017, owing to the prevalence of sports injuries leading to increase in demand for artificial ligament and tendon, growing emphasis by healthcare organizations and leverage by government towards the development of advanced and technologically improved artificial implants in the region. Asia Pacific is expected to register a comparatively higher CAGR from 2019-2026 due to rising prevalence of accidents and sports injuries, increasing aging population, and developing healthcare infrastructure.
Key Industry Developments
- In June 2018, a team of Swiss researchers developed a microplate system for printing engineered muscle and tendon tissue. This system may help as a therapeutic application to treat a variety of muscle disorders.
- In January 2018, a team of scientists from University of Colorado Boulder engineered a humanlike artificial muscle which is cheap, flexible and strong.
