The global bioabsorbable stents market size reached USD 438.0 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 786.5 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.72% during 2025-2033.
Bioabsorbable stents (BRS) are coated with an antiproliferative drug or gene that dissolves over time to restore vessel patency and permit remodeling while retaining recoil. It helps in regulating blood flow at branch points and limiting the amount of blood to areas of the vascular network while maintaining the flow at low perfusion. It also improves lesion imaging with cardiac computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In addition, it leaves no residual scaffold, reduces vessel irritation and inflammation, and facilitates repeat treatments to the same site. As a result, BRS finds extensive applications in hospitals and cardiac centers across the globe.
Bioabsorbable Stents Market Trends:
The growing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases due to an unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, and excessive consumption of tobacco and alcohol represents one of the factors driving the market. Moreover, there is a rise in the utilization of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures to open a blocked artery for carrying oxygen-rich blood through the body. This, along with the expanding healthcare industry, is contributing to the growth of the market. Besides this, the increasing awareness among the masses about the benefits of bioabsorbable stents is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. In addition, the growing demand for minimally invasive procedures due to less postoperative pain, fewer operative and postoperative complications, shortened hospital stay, and faster recovery times is positively influencing the market. Apart from this, key market players are extensively investing in research and development (R&D) activities to introduce SLENDER integrated delivery system (IDS) fixed-wire and DIRECT RX bioabsorbable rapid-exchange drug-eluting stent (DES) systems to treat coronary artery disease. They are also focusing on developing polymer-based stents, which is expected to bolster the growth of the market.
