Market Overview The surgical removal of a polyp is known as a polypectomy. Colon polyps can be removed via open abdominal surgery, but it is more commonly done during a colonoscopy. There are two types of polypectomy forceps. Hot forceps polypectomy is used for small polyps and cold forceps polypectomy uses electrocautery to destroy residual polyp tissue that has been purposefully left behind.
Market Dynamics Increasing demand for minimally invasive techniques is expected to drive the market in the forecast period
There is an increasing demand for minimally invasive techniques globally. Surgeons have rapidly adopted minimally invasive surgical (MIS) techniques for a wide range of applications. For example, ResectrTM treatment, also known as polypectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed with a ResectrTM tool obtained from Boston Scientific. Resectr treatments are given in an ambulatory surgical facility, a physician's office, or a hospital.
Polyps in the cervix or uterus are removed during a polypectomy. The growth form on the endometrial lining and can cause symptoms or not, but many women experience unusual bleeding or irregular periods. The growths may also make it difficult for a woman to become pregnant. Polyps in menopausal women frequently cause vaginal bleeding.
Colonoscopy and polypectomy procedures, which aid in the early detection and treatment of colorectal polyps, are important minimally invasive procedures for lowering the risk of colorectal cancer. Polypectomy methods include standard, hot, and jumbo biopsy, cold snare, and hot snare.
Polypectomy with jumbo biopsy forceps, which have a greater capacity for removing larger tissue samples, and cold snare polypectomy are adequate for completely and safely removing minor polyps and shortening the withdrawal time of the colonoscopy procedure.
Endoscopic mucosal resection laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic polypectomy and laparoscopic-assisted colectomy are all safe and effective procedures for treating "difficult" colonic polyps. In a significant number of patients referred for surgical intervention on these lesions, open segmental resection can be avoided. If endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic polypectomy (LAEP) are ineffective, a minimally invasive approach can be maintained with a laparoscopic colon resection.
Market Segmentation: By Type • Cold • Hot • Other By End-User • Hospitals • Clinics • Others
Geographical Analysis North America region accounted for the largest market share in the global polypectomy forceps market
With the increasing incidence of colon and rectal cancer and product launches, this region is expected to dominate the polypectomy forceps market. Colon polyps are common in adults in the United States. Colon polyps can affect anywhere from 15% to 40% of adults. Men and older people are more likely to have colon polyps.
In their lifetime, approximately 4.4 percent of men (1 in 23) and 4.1 percent of women (1 in 25) will be diagnosed with CRC. Despite higher incidence rates in men due to women's longer life expectancy, the lifetime risk is similar in men and women.
On September 25th, 2019, In the United States, Olympus introduced the SnareMaster Plus hybrid hot/cold snare. The SnareMaster Plus is a hot/cold hybrid snare with a unique hexagonal shape and thin wire design that provides optimal flexibility and stiffness for accurate placement on tissue and precise cutting ability.
Competitive Landscape The global polypectomy forceps market is highly competitive with increasing mergers, product launches, and surgical instruments demand. Some of the key players in the global polypectomy forceps market are Boston Scientific, Cook Medical, Olympus, Medtronic US, CONMED, Medline, MedGyn Products, jiangsu ate medical technology, Micro-Tech, and Beijing ZKSK Technology Co., Ltd.
