U.S flow diverters market size, by diameter size, 2020 - 2030 (USD Million)

Increasing incidence of brain aneurysm globally is expected to impact the market growth positively in the forecast period. Brain aneurysm is also termed as intracranial or cerebral aneurysm, which is a bulge or ballooning in a blood vessel inside the brain. This aneurysm can rupture and cause bleeding in the adjacent subarachnoid space, thereby leading to a stroke or brain hemorrhage. Flow diverters are mainly used to treat untreatable intracranial aneurysms and is placed in the parent artery, in order to divert blood flow. In addition, presence of large geriatric patient base is anticipated to be one of the key success factors for the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, as per the Cleveland Clinic, up to 6% of people in the U.S. have an aneurysm in their brain with no bleeding (a condition of an unruptured aneurysm). In addition, approximately 10% to 30% of people who have a brain aneurysm deal with multiple aneurysms.

Minimally invasive surgeries are gaining popularity due to the low risk and trauma associated with these procedures. Smaller incisions reduce the risk of postoperative pain and allow speedy recovery, leading to a high adoption of these procedures. Several key players are investing in R&D for launching technologically advanced minimally invasive surgical instruments. The endovascular coiling and flow diverters are used for the treatment of intracranial aneurysm and are some of the minimally invasive procedures widely recommended by physicians. Moreover, the number of minimally invasive surgeries declined significantly in 2020, owing to considerable reduction in newly diagnosed cases during the COVID-19 pandemic because of reduced screening initiatives undertaken by concerned authorities. Thus, various advantages of these surgeries are expected to boost the adoption of minimally invasive procedures, thereby propelling market growth.

Furthermore, increasing incidence of brain aneurysm in some of the developed and developing countries has driven the launch of technologically advanced products in the market. Key companies are making continuous efforts for introducing technologically advanced products in the market. For instance, in July 2020, Balt received CE mark for its Silk Vista flow diverter. The approval has aided commercialization in more than 30 countries in and across the EU. The Silk Vista system is intended for precise and predictable deployment, as well as high visibility under angiography. It joins the Silk Vista baby flow diverter, which received CE certification in 2018. Thus, this in turn is anticipated to increase the demand for flow diverters in the near future.

Countries such as, the U.S. and Canada have witnessed high incidence rate of intracranial aneurysm in the recent years. As per the Frontiers Media S.A report in March 2022, Aneurysms are a rare case in neurology, occurring between 2% and 5% of the time. Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) induced by an aneurysm rupture is lethal, with fatality rates of up to 60%, and mortality rates of up to 20% in hospitalized patients. Therefore, such high prevalence of intracranial aneurysm is anticipated to boost the market growth over the forecast period. In addition, rise in the number of initiatives being undertaken by government and non-government organizations for spreading awareness about cerebral aneurysm, increasing healthcare expenditure, are among the factors boosting market growth.

Furthermore, the increasing awareness about brain aneurysm has resulted in people being mindful of the causes and early manifestations of stroke. According to the Brain Aneurysm Foundation, around 500,000 deaths occur worldwide each year caused by brain aneurysm. At present, various initiatives have been launched by the governments of several countries to improve public awareness and treatment related to this condition. For instance, the Bee Foundation (TBF), a nonprofit organization, is focused on spreading awareness and reducing the number of deaths due to cerebral aneurysm by innovative research. The TBF invites proposals for brain aneurysm research grant, which is likely to help the organization achieve its aim of reducing mortality due to brain aneurysm. This growing awareness among people regarding the treatment and initiatives taken by government to prevent the rate of intracranial aneurysm is likely to boost the market growth.

Diameter Size Insights

Based on diameter size, the flow diverters market is segmented 2-3 mm flow diverters, 3-4 mm flow diverters, 4-5 mm flow diverters, and >5 mm flow diverters. >5 mm flow diverters segment dominated the market with the share of 65.41% in 2022. The >5 mm has the capability to treat intracranial aneurysms of size more than 10 mm in diameter. As a result, these large diameter diverters are typically used to insert devices in large blood vessels with high occlusion rate. This is due to its broad spectrum use in treating large and wide-neck cerebral aneurysms, because the majority of ruptured aneurysms are greater in size, measuring greater than 10.0 mm in diameter. Hence, >5 mm devices are ideal for implanting in large vessels and achieving a greater rate of stable aneurysm occlusion. Thus, owing to several approvals and advantages, this segment is estimated to lead the market in the coming years.

Global flow diverters market share, by diameter size, 2022 (%)

According to a study published in Science Direct journal, in 2021, aneurysms smaller than 10 mm in diameter had a rupture rate of just 0.05% per year compared to about 1% per year for aneurysms greater than or equal to 10 mm in diameter and 6% in the first year for giant aneurysms (>25 mm). Thus, flow diverters with >5 mm diameter are used widely. Thus, this segment is expected to dominate the market in the coming years.

However, 3-4 mm flow diverters segment is expected to witness the highest CAGR from 2023 to 2030 owing to rise in number of product approvals and increase in demand for minimally invasive procedures. For instance, in July 2020, Balt Extrusion obtained CE mark approval for its Silk Vista flow diverting stent used to treat small or medium sized intracranial aneurysms (unruptured). This product will be commercialized in over 30 European countries. Similarly, in February 2019, Medtronic received the U.S. FDA approval for an expanded indication of Pipeline Flex embolization device. This device can be used for the treatment of patients with medium or small, wide-necked aneurysms. Hence, the 3-4 mm flow diverters segment is expected to exhibit the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
