According to the Global Industry Report for June 2023, the global market for knee implants and related medical products by 2024 will be about $4 billion. The main drivers of growth will be an increase in the number of minimally invasive surgeries using precision personified guides, an increase in the geriatric population, and the prevalence of arthritis.[1]
