Product Overview

Trocar, also known as a trochar, is a medical or veterinary instrument, made up of a cannula, an obturator, and a seal. Trocars are used during laparoscopic surgeries. The trocar functions as an entry point for the placement of other instruments, such as scissors, graspers, staplers, etc. This device also has its application in some processes where the escape of gas or fluid from organs is necessary within the body.

Dynamics: Drivers, Challenges, Future Potential Growth and Trending Factors

The global trocars market is expected to register significant growth over the forecast period, owing to the increasing popularity of minimally invasive surgeries. Minimally invasive surgeries are safer than conventional surgeries and offer comparatively faster recovery time, also there is a minimal chance of post-operative infections. Moreover, increasing applicability of trocars in laparoscopic surgeries, coupled with an increasing number of laparoscopic surgeries per year is also expected to contribute to growth of the global trocars market over the forecast period. Rising prevalence of chronic conditions such as gynecological and urological disorders is also expected to augment growth of the global market. In addition, growing geriatric population is expected to support growth of the global market. Rising disposable income among the middle-class population has resulted in increasing preference for laparoscopic surgeries, leading to increasing demand for trocars, which in turn is expected to fuel growth of the global trocars market over the 10-year period.

High cost associated with laparoscopic surgeries, lack of health awareness among the populace, technical complications regarding use of trocars, and unavailability of medical facilities and equipment in underdeveloped regions are some factors restraining growth of the global trocars market to a certain extent.

Invention of smart trocars and increasing applicability in medical procedures are some of the key trends observed in the industry and are expected to augment growth of the global market over the estimated time period. There is a huge potential for growth of the market in the future, owing to opportunities from untapped markets and emerging markets.
