Sales Analysis of Market from 2015 to 2022 Vs Market Outlook for 2023 to 2033

The Global Syndesmosis Implant Systems Market recorded a historic CAGR of 6.6% in the last 7 years from 2015 to 2022.

A syndesmosis is a joint between two bones that is connected by strong membrane and ligaments. An ankle sprain known as a syndesmotic ankle sprain (high ankle sprain) affects the ligaments connecting the distal tibia and fibula at their syndesmosis (a syndesmotic joint). The interosseous ligament (IOL), posterior-inferior tibiofibular ligament (PITFL), and anterior-inferior tibiofibular ligament (AITFL), and transverse tibiofibular ligament adhere to the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis (TTFL). Any ankle motion can result in syndesmotic damage. Extreme external rotation or talar dorsiflexion are the most frequent movements. In football, downhill skiing, and athletics, syndesmotic ankle sprains are frequent injuries.

Syndesmosis implant systems are expected to see profitable growth in the future as a result of product development, increased research and development activities, increased awareness about ankle syndesmosis, and increased investments in product innovation.

Several studies have been conducted to compare the cost-effectiveness of suture button fixation to syndesmotic screws.

  • In 2017, the American Journal of Sports Medicine published an article comparing the cost-effectiveness of suture button fixation as compared to syndesmotic screws in ankle fractures with unstable supination-external rotation type 4 (SER IV). The study's findings revealed that suture button fixation is both more effective and less expensive.

Adoption of newly launched orthopedic implants has increased due to surgeons' readiness to perform technologically advanced surgeries, increased awareness of metal and absorbable implants, and the growing availability of customised therapies in the era of personalised medicine.

Surgeons are primarily concerned with improving patient outcomes and expediting recovery. Increased coverage for foot and ankle implants is also likely to encourage adoption and boost the chances of the surgeon recommending these implants.

How Can the Global Market Grow?

Use of Titanium and Biodegradable Implants for Various Sport Injuries and Bone Disorders

In recent years, the frequency of sports injuries has dramatically grown.

  • According to a research by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS), 25% of sports injuries involve the lower extremities, such as the foot and ankle. Both professional and amateur athletes have experienced serious bone injuries.
  • According to a study conducted by the School of Public Health, Physiotherapy and Population Science, University College Dublin, ankle sprain is one of the most common musculoskeletal injuries. Nearly 116 studies revealed that the incidence of ankle sprain was higher among women than in men. In sports category, ankle sprain incidence was higher in indoor/court sports.

Increase in the number of accidents and bone disorders such as joint pain, instability in the joint, bone loss, and infection are anticipated to spur demand for syndesmosis implant systems during the forecast period.

Use of titanium and biodegradable implants in fracture fixation has increased due to rising awareness of advantages of these implant materials among surgeons. Implants made of titanium are lightweight and maintain a steel-like level of strength. Using bioabsorbable implants has a number of benefits, including minimal risk of osteopenia, no irritation of soft tissue, and no need for a second procedure to remove the implants.

Ankle fractures and syndemostic injuries are most common among athletes and sportspersons. Early diagnosis and treatment of ankle injuries and sprains helps faster healing and reduces pain. Increase in number of health care providers focusing on optimal management of ankle injuries is expected to fuel the growth of the market

Key principle of surgical treatment of syndesmotic injuries is anatomic reduction of the ankle joint and establishment of correct tibia–fibula interval. Therefore, orthopedic surgeons focus on optimal management of sport injuries in order to reduce patient discomfort, proper fixation, and speedy recovery.

Can the Market Growth Be Affected in Any Way?

“Product Recall in Foot and Ankle Market and Complications Associated With Implants”

Products recalls due to manufacturing errors, side effects, damage to bones, or infection affect the sales of the foot and ankle implants. Regulatory authorities such as the Food and Drug Administration have issued product recalls for a number of arthroplasty device manufacturers. There were some voluntary recalls by product manufacturers as well.

  • In March 2018, Zimmer Biomet recalled Ziptight ankle syndesmosis fixation device, a titanium implant. The company initiated the recall as the product was packaged without the tip protectors. 885 units of Ziptight device were recalled. Therefore, product recalls affect a company’s brand image as well as nets sales.

Syndesmosis implants could lead to various complications and the patient might have to remove the implant in another surgery. This leads to economic burden and over-utilization of health care resources.

  • A study published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information concluded that out of 102 cases of traumatic ankle syndesmotic stabilization, nearly eight patients had to remove the implant due to painful aseptic osteolysis surrounding the implant, failed stabilization of the syndesmosis, and steomyelitis surrounding the implant.
