Europe Spine Surgery Devices Market: By Product (Spinal Fusion & Fixation Devices, Spine Biologics, Non-Fusion Implants, Spine Bone Stimulators), By End-User (Orthopedic Clinics & Spine Centers, Hospitals), By Geography – Analysis & Forecast to 2021

The spine surgery devices market is broadly segmented into four classes such as fusion, non-fusion, spinal decompression and spine biologics. Fusion category can be divided into spine fusion and fixation and spinal bone stimulators. Non-fusion segment consists of motion preservation technologies such as dynamic stabilization, artificial discs, annual repair and nucleus replacement. Vertebral compression factures treatment category includes market for vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty kits. Spinal decompression segment consists of niche markets such as corpectomy, disectomy, foraminotomy / forminectomy and laminotomy / laminectomy. Allogarfts, bone morphonenetic proteins, demineralised bone matrix, bone substitutes and machined bones, together contribute to overall category of spine biologics.

Factors driving the demand for Spine Surgery Devices are the incidences of road accidents, the increasing incidence of spinal deformities such as disc compression amongst the aging population in the European region, and the popularity of non-fusion devices such as artificial spinal disc and nucleus has triggered the market. The increasing demand from the aging population, along with the advancement in medical technology (minimally invasive techniques and biologics), is driving the demand for the spine surgery device market in this region.   According to statistic of 2014 available from census number of people having age 65 and above in Germany, Italy, U.K. France and Spain together were 61,806,942. According to statistic available from OECD, number of road accident incidences in 2012 was 1,077,700.

The European Spine Surgery Devices market is estimated to be dominated by New product launches, & Mergers & Acquisitions are the major strategies adopted by most market players to achieve growth in the European Spine Surgery Devices market. In November 2014, Zimmer Holdings Inc. (U.S.) launched Zimmer launched Virage® OCT Spinal Fixation System. This system is featured with the 360 degree Omnidirectional Extreme-Angle Screw, which allows a 112 degree conical range of motion. This system is designed to minimize the required operating time and to simplify rod alignment. Likewise, in October  2014, Medtronic Plc, one of the leading orthopedic medical technology companies launched the Pure Titanium Coating (PTC) platform of interbody fusion devices. This platform includes CAPSTONE PTC(TM) Spinal System, CLYDESDALE PTC(TM) Spinal System, ANATOMIC PEEK PTC Cervical Fusion System and CORNERSTONE-SR® Ti- Coated Anatomical Cervical Cage. Compression of the nerve roots or spinal cord causes pain, this device will help to reduce this pain by restoring the normal height of discs.

The European spine surgery devices market is expected to reach $3.46 billion by 2021, at a CAGR of 7.3% from 2016 to 2021. In 2015, spinal fusion & fixation devices was the largest segment in the European spine surgery devices market, with a share of 66.5% in terms of value. It is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period.

In-depth Market share analysis, by revenue, of the top companies is also included in the report. These numbers are arrived at, based on key facts, annual financial information from SEC filings, Annual reports and interviews with industry experts, key opinion leaders such as CEOs, directors, and marketing executives. Top market players that have established their base in the global trauma fixation devices are Stryker Corporation (U.S.), DePuy Synthes Companies of Johnson & Johnson (U.S.), Zimmer Holdings, Inc. (U.S.), Smith & Nephew Plc (U.K.), Tornier, Inc. (France) and Biomet, Inc. (U.S.), and other companies.

In spine surgery, high quality instruments are used in implants that are fitted in spine to replace any defective vertebra or disc to support the spine. The spine surgery devices market is an important segment in the orthopedic market with a share of 24.3% in 2014.

Spine surgeries are basically recommended to patients suffering from chronic back pain due to disc herniation, isthmic spondylolisthesis, degenerative diseases such as degenerative spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis, and many others. Generally, low back pain is a common symptom reported by 30.0% patients with spine instability, but the source of pain needs to be identified before undergoing any surgery.

By type, this market is segmented into spinal fusion and spinal non-fusion, wherein spinal fusion, which fuses vertebrae together to treat back pain and is commonly done in the lumbar region of the lower back, is by far the most common spine procedure in the European region. The spinal fusion segment is divided into cervical fusion, thoraco-lumbar fusion, and others. Spinal non-fusion products, such as dynamic stabilization devices, also known as motion preservation devices, have become the treatment of choice, especially for young patients in comparison to the other two segments of the spinal non-fusion segment, namely, interspinous process decompression (IPD) devices and total disc replacement.

The market is estimated to be driven by increasing aging population, technological advancements, rising number of industry players, and increasing demand for MIS procedures. However, pricing pressures, economic slowdown, and unstable reimbursement policies will restrict the growth of this market to a certain extent.

The Europe spine surgery devices market size is expected to reach USD 2.37 billion by 2020, at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2015 to 2020. This is mainly due to the increasing incidence of spinal deformities such as disc compression amongst the aging population in the European region, and the popularity of non-fusion devices such as artificial spinal disc and nucleus. The increasing demand from the aging population, along with the advancements in medical technology (minimally invasive techniques and biologics), is driving the demand for the spine surgery device market in Europe.

The Europe spine surgery devices market is witnessing significant growth due to the increasing awareness among patients about the advantages of advanced treatments and technologies, such as orthobiologics and minimally invasive surgery. According to various medical records, 25 persons in every 1000 in the age group of 45 to 64 years undergo a joint replacement surgery, mainly as a result of osteoarthritis due to obesity. In addition, there has been a significant increase in the number of patients that demand artificial bone and soft tissue healing treatments. This has contributed significantly to the growth of the fixation devices market. The increasing demand from the aging population for orthopedic treatment, along with the aforementioned factors, is driving the European spine surgery devices market.

Advancements in the Europe spine surgery devices market are a result of the shifting focus from experimental to application-based advancements and mechanized implants in the early 90s. The key players in the market, such as Stryker Corporation (U.S.), DePuy Synthes Companies of Johnson & Johnson (U.S.), Zimmer Inc. (U.S.), Medtronic Plc (U.S.), Alphatec Spine, Inc. (U.S), NuVasive Inc. (U.S.), Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (U.S.), Orthofix International N.V. (U.S), Globus Medical Inc. (U.S.), LDR Holding Corporation (U.S.), K2M Inc. (U.S.), and B. Braun Melsungen (Germany), and others emphasize upon research & development of spinal & joint replacement techniques, products, and so on. This era of orthopedics can be termed as an era of mechanized solutions, where developments in mechanical devices are prioritized by most of these companies.
