Hemorrhoid Surgery Equipment Market By Type (Band Ligators, Sclerotherapy Injectors, Infrared Coagulators, Others) , By End User (Hospitals, Ambulatory Surgical Centers, Others) : Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2024-2033
The hemorrhoid surgery equipment market was valued at $0.7 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $1.1 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2024 to 2033.
Hemorrhoid surgery equipment refers to the specialized medical tools and devices used in surgical procedures to remove or treat hemorrhoids—swollen veins in the lower rectum and anus that can cause discomfort, pain, and bleeding. These instruments are designed to assist in various types of hemorrhoid surgeries, such as hemorrhoidectomy (removal of hemorrhoids) or minimally invasive techniques like rubber band ligation, sclerotherapy, and laser procedures.
Rise in number of individuals, particularly those with sedentary lifestyles or diets low in fiber, are experiencing hemorrhoid-related issues. This rise in cases is driving demand for surgical interventions, thus fostering the growth of the global hemorrhoid surgery equipment market. A study published in The Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care in 2020 estimates that approximately 50% of adults will experience hemorrhoidal symptoms by the age of 50. The report highlights that hemorrhoids are most commonly seen in adults between the ages of 45 and 65, significantly driving the need for surgical interventions. In addition, surge in aging population significantly contributes toward the market growth. This is attributed to the fact that as the global population ages, there is a higher incidence of hemorrhoidal conditions due to weakened tissues and increased susceptibility to such diseases among the elderly, thus boosting demand for surgery equipment. As per the World Health Organization, the number of people aged 60 years and older was 1 billion in 2019. This number is estimated to increase to 1.4 billion by 2030 and 2.1 billion by 2050. This demographic shift is projected to increase the demand for hemorrhoid surgeries, as older individuals are more prone to the condition due to weakening rectal tissues. Moreover, increase in awareness about hemorrhoid treatments and reduced stigma around seeking medical help are encouraging more people to opt for surgical solutions, thereby fueling market demand for specialized equipment. Furthermore, rise in preference for minimally invasive procedures due to quicker recovery times and reduced discomfort is augmenting the need for advanced, minimally invasive hemorrhoid surgery tools. However, high cost associated with advanced hemorrhoid surgery tools, such as laser devices and staplers, acts as the key restraint of the global market. In addition, preference toward non-surgical treatments like over-the-counter medications, lifestyle changes, and non-invasive procedures like rubber band ligation hampers the growth of the global market. On the contrary, continuous innovation in surgical tools, such as laser-based devices, staplers, and minimally invasive equipment, has improved procedural efficiency, reduced recovery time, and enhanced patient outcomes, are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for the market growth during the forecast period.
