Esophageal Stents Market by Type (Biodegradable Stents, Self-expandable Metal Stents, Self-expandable Plastic Stents), Material (Nitinol, Silicone, Stainless Steel), Application, End User - Global Forecast 2024-2030

The Esophageal Stents Market size was estimated at USD 150.40 million in 2023 and expected to reach USD 159.47 million in 2024, at a CAGR 6.26% to reach USD 230.10 million by 2030.

Esophageal stents are tubular devices made of metal or plastic that are used to open narrowed areas of the esophagus, the tube that carries food from the throat to the stomach. These stents are primarily used to treat esophageal strictures or blockages, often caused by cancer, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or other medical conditions. The growing prevalence of esophageal cancer advances in stent technology that improves patient comfort and outcomes and the minimally invasive nature of stent placement compared to traditional surgical procedures have expanded the use of esophageal stents. Despite their benefits, esophageal stents can cause complications, such as migration, where the stent moves from its original position or re-obstruction caused by tumor growth through the stent. Additionally, patients may experience discomfort or pain, particularly when swallowing. Addressing these issues involves continuous improvements in stent design, such as developing biodegradable stents that dissolve over time, reducing the need for additional procedures, or coating stents with drugs to help combat tumor growth. Nevertheless, increasing research into stent materials and coatings that enhance compatibility with the body and reduce complications provides added growth for the market. There is also potential in customizing stents for patients based on personalized medical needs, leveraging advances in 3D printing technology.
