South America Lymphedema Treatment Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Condition Type (Primary Lymphedema and Secondary Lymphedema), Treatment Type (Laser Therapy, Compression Devices and Bandaging, Drug Therapy, Physiological Procedures {Lymphovenous Anastomosis (LVA) and Vascularized Lymph Node Transfer (VLNT)}, Debulking Procedures {Surgical Debulking, Liposuction, and Others}, and Others), and End User (Hospitals, Clinics, Clinical Research Organizations, and Others)
The lymphedema treatment market in SAM is expected to grow from US$ 300.85 million in 2021 to US$ 419.04 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2021 to 2028. The utility of robotics for lymphatic surgery allows much greater flexibility and precision compared to previously used laparoscopy. Additionally, the use of robotics proves optimal for both surgeon and patient outcomes and will reveal positive results during the forecast period. For instance, patients who underwent the single-robotic surgery for lymphedema in May 2020 have provided positive anecdotal feedback, including significant clinical improvement such as the ability to wear clothes with the surgeon's significant accomplishments. Further, robots enabled with artificial intelligence (AI) are increasingly assisting in microsurgical procedures in lymphedema surgeries for reducing surgeon variations that could affect patient recovery. For example, for lymphedema surgery, in May 2020, an urogynecology surgeon performed a first-of-its-kind single-port robotic mental harvest by utilizing a free lymph node transfer, intended for minimally invasive surgical treatment of lymphedema. The main objective of this new surgical treatment method is to minimize donor site morbidity with debilitating lymphedema symptoms, so growing use of robotics is expected to fuel the market growth.
Based on end-user, the hospitals segment led the SAM lymphedema treatment market in 2020. The hospital segment accounted for the maximum share of the lymphedema treatment market due to the growing adoption of minimally invasive surgeries in hospitals and the uptake of advanced imaging modalities for treating lymphedema. Additionally, surgeries are performed in hospitals for treating lymphedema. Furthermore, favorable reimbursement policies supporting lymphatic treatment in hospitals support the overall market growth. For instance, growing awareness of lymphedema as an expensive preventable complication following oncology surgery eliminates barriers between the medical coverage for therapeutic and prophylactic procedures. among patients, hospitals, and the healthcare systems experienced lucrative benefits.
The COVID-19 pandemic situation subsequently resulted in the delay in spreading adequate awareness programs in the SAM region. The COVID-19 pandemic has not only resulted in millions of deaths but also posed indirect effects on other diseases and healthcare programs. In view of the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to maintain social distancing, government organizations issued the recommendation on 1st April 2020 to put all community-based surveys, active case-finding activities, and mass treatment campaigns for neglected tropical diseases on hold until further notice. However, as the cases of lymphedema treatment were rising in the region, government bodies bought the concept of telemedicine through which the awareness programs could reach the people suffering from lymphedema in Brazil and Argentina and help them in mitigating such risks. However, healthcare investments in Brazil and proper regulations are expected to positively impact the lymphedema treatment market in Brazil and Argentina.
