Saudi Arabia Minimally Invasive Surgery Devices Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Saudi Arabia Minimally Invasive Surgery Devices Market Analysis

Saudi Arabia's minimally invasive surgery devices market is believed to witness a CAGR of around 6.8% over the forecast period.

• COVID-19 significantly impacted the Saudi Arabia minimally invasive surgery devices market in the early pandemic due to the reduction and postponement of surgical procedures. For instance, according to a study published in the Asian Journal of Urology in March 2021, 75% of elective endourological surgeries declined during the pandemic. Furthermore, according to the study published in Cureus in November 2022, hospital visits decreased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic. 
• The early release practices established in COVID-19 procedures to lower the risk of infection contributed significantly to the decrease in the mean length of hospital stay during the pandemic. The postponement and cancellation of procedures led to a rise in the intensity of symptoms. This led to a surge in minimally invasive surgeries late in the pandemic to complete the lagging cases. The postponement and cancellation of procedures led to a rise in the intensity of symptoms. This has led to a surge in minimally invasive surgeries during the late pandemic to complete the lagging cases. In addition, the market is expected to grow at a significant pace post-pandemic due to increased adoption of the minimally invasive surge, which is expected to drive the market growth.
• The factors driving the market growth include the higher acceptance rate of minimally invasive surgeries over traditional surgeries and the increasing prevalence of lifestyle-related and chronic disorders.
• According to the study published in Urology Annals in July 2022, in urological practice, minimally invasive robotic technology has advanced significantly in Saudi Arabia, replacing many open procedures and integrating them into standard clinical practice. Such higher acceptance of minimally invasive surgeries (MIS) in the country is expected to drive market growth over the forecast period due to increased adoption of MIS devices.
• Furthermore, according to the Saudi Gazette, in July 2023, the rate of occurrence of cancer was 1.3% in men and 1.8% in women in 2022. Furthermore, according to the same source, the incidence of cancer increased by 1.6% in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021. Therefore, the rising incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer is anticipated to increase the demand for minimally invasive surgeries, driving market growth.
• Therefore, factors such as rising acceptance and adoption of surgeries, along with the rising burden of chronic disease, are expected to drive the market growth. However, a shortage of experienced professionals is believed to hinder the market growth over the forecast period.
