Spinal fusion surgery is a well-established procedure that has been performed since the early 1900s. The procedure has benefited immensely from its long history of use, investments in advancing technologies, and its clinical success in a growing variety of spinal conditions. These traits have led spinal fusion surgery to become one of the most frequently performed surgeries in the US, which is undoubtedly, the largest geographic market for this procedure. Given the global phenomenon of an aging society and the associated increasing incidences of degenerative spinal conditions, the spinal fusion market is expected to remain strong over the forecast period.
The specific anatomical regions being operated on are covered, including cervical and thoracolumbar. Furthermore, this report analyzes the adoption of these implantables in single-, double-, and triple-level surgeries, creating the most comprehensive and accurate market valuations and coverage. The report analyzes how these surgical trends vary in the major markets in European Union including France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom (UK).
