Europe Knee Cartilage Repair Market - Industry Trends and Forecast to 2029

Europe Knee Cartilage Repair Market Analysis and Insights

The knee is the largest joint in the body. The upper and lower bones of the knee are separated by two discs (menisci). The upper leg bone (femur) and the lower leg bones (tibia and fibula) are connected by ligaments and tendons. The cartilage is the most common type of connective tissue. It is found in various forms throughout our joints, spine, bones, ears, lungs, and nose. Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue which coats the surfaces of the bones in our joints and protects them against impact to maintain joint mobility fluid.

The knee cartilage repair is a procedure which involves repairing damaged cartilage while also smoothing the tissue’s remaining surface. The cartilage repair surgery, which attempts to restore cartilage tissue and function to avoid long-term osteoarthritis (OA), is an appropriate treatment choice for focal full-thickness cartilage abnormalities in the knee. The osteotomy, knee replacement, microfracture are some of the most common knee cartilage repair techniques. The surgical techniques or less prevalent surgical procedures, such as allograft osteochondral transplantation, autologous chondrocyte implantation and artificial scaffolds, are sometimes utilized to repair cartilage injury.

Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the Europe knee cartilage repair market will grow at a CAGR of 9.7% during the forecast period of 2022 to 2029.

Osteoporosis Drugs Market Dynamics

Drivers

• High prevalence of knee disorders

The common knee disease which occurs in Europe is knee osteoarthritis. Knee osteoarthritis accounts for almost four fifths of the burden of OA worldwide and increases with obesity and age. Knee diseases, especially the knee osteoarthritis, are common and a major cause of disability among the elderly population.

For instance,

• According to Global Burden of Disease Data, in 2019, over 57 million people in Western Europe have osteoarthritis (OA). The disease caused the loss of over 2 million years of healthy life

The rise in incidence of chronic knee disorders is expected to boost the sales and supply of the implants for treatment of cartilage repair in Europe. It would meet the patient requirements and hence is expected to drive the growth of the market.

• Growing geriatric population

Knee disorders, namely the knee osteoarthritis and ligament tear are the common in the elderly population in Europe. The adults, aged 60 years and above and particularly living in long-term care facilities, are likely to suffer from bone disorders. As ageing increases, the burden of knee disorders in the geriatric population may increase, which paves the way for development of medications and implants in diagnostic and prevention strategies critical for improving the knee disorders of older adults.

For instance,

• According to Eurostat, in 2021, more than one fifth of the EU population (20.8 %), was aged 65 and over

As the geriatric population suffering from chronic knee increases, it would result in increased demand of treatment. Therefore, the rise in geriatric population is expected to boost the growth of the market.

Opportunities

• Rise in awareness about knee treatment in Europe

Awareness about the symptoms and treatment of chronic knee diseases, by public and private institutes would result in timely treatment and also provide the option to access to inexpensive universal health aid along with increased availability of rehabilitative treatment. The European Knee Society (EKS) was created to bring the European key opinion leaders in the field of the degenerative knee and knee arthroplasty.

For instance,

• In November 2020, the European Knee Society (EKS) had collaborated with the Department of Clinical, Surgical, Diagnostic and Pediatric Sciences, University of Pavia, Italy, for organizing two fellowships and creating awareness about treatment on primary and revision knee replacement

This will result in rise in product and business line expansion. Hence, rise in awareness among people about the timely treatment is expected to act as opportunity for the growth of the market.

• Rise in number of knee surgeries

Hip and knee replacements are some of the most frequently performed and effective surgeries in Europe region.

For instance,

• The data by the National Joint Registery states that approximately, 160,000 total hip and knee replacement procedures performed each year, in England and Wales

Technological development would be of crucial importance in the development of advanced knee implants. Thus the increase in numbers of surgeries performed is expected to act as opportunity for the growth of the market.

Restraints/Challenges

• High cost of orthopaedic knee implants and surgeries

Knee arthroplasty is a popular procedure, but exhibits high cost. The rise in cost of the knee implants are due to technological development and the rising preference for less invasive orthopedic knee implants.

The cost of Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (ACI) is expensive. According to ProHealth Clinic U.K., it costs around $40,000. The Osteochondral allograft transplantation is a specialized procedure. Its cost is thus high depending upon the cost of the allografts. It ranges around $10,000. Hence, it is expected to hamper the market growth.

Patient Epidemiology Analysis

Orthopedic diseases continue to rise throughout the globe. Osteoarthritis is caused by inflammation, breakdown, and the gradual and eventual loss of cartilage in the joints. Over time, the cartilage wears down and the bones rub together.

According to Arthritis Research UK, approximately 1 in 5 adults (18.2.%), over 45 years of age has knee osteoporosis in England. According to report by the Oxford Academic, the incidence of knee osteoarthritis, were reported to show highest number of cases in the U.K., followed by France, Germany , Spain and Italy, showing the less record cases of knee osteoarthritis
