Report Overview

The global minimally invasive thoracic surgery market size was valued at USD 4.22 billion in 2023 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% from 2024 to 2030. The increasing number of lung cancer cases is propelling the demand for improved patient care, leading to the growth and transformation of the market. This growth is also driven by evolving patient preferences, which necessitate better accommodation, daily routines, check-ups, and improved patient-hospital staff relationships.

U.S. minimally invasive thoracic surgery market size, by type, 2018 - 2028 (USD Billion)

According to a survey by the American Cancer Society, lung cancer accounts for approximately one in five cancer-related deaths worldwide. Advances in surgical techniques have made it possible to prevent it, leading to an increased demand for minimally invasive thoracic surgeries.

The minimally invasive thoracic surgery market is seeing rapid advancements due to the continuous development of new technologies, such as Da Vinci surgical instruments used in laparoscopic surgery. Advancing health insurance companies that help cover patients' expenses has helped patients receive surgery treatment and increased the market's growth.

Types Insights

The lobectomy segment accounted for 51.9% of the total revenue in 2023. The high rate of lobectomy procedures can be linked to the rising incidence of lung diseases such as lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). These conditions often necessitate lobectomy. Moreover, advancements in surgical methods and the emergence of enhanced safer surgical tools have rendered lobectomy a more feasible and favored choice for thoracic surgeries. Notably, the lobectomy segment is currently the most rapidly expanding sector in the market. This expeditious growth can be attributed to the mounting adoption of these procedures, their abbreviated hospital stays reduced postoperative discomfort, and swifter recuperation periods compared to conventional open surgery.

The wedge resection segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2024 to 2030. Wedge resection is particularly favored for addressing early-stage lung cancer and for patients unsuitable for more extensive surgery. The anticipated expansion in this field can be ascribed to the rise in early-stage lung cancer cases, advancements in imaging technologies enabling early detection, and the increasing preference for minimally invasive approaches. Furthermore, ongoing research and development endeavors to enhance the effectiveness and safety of wedge resection procedures are also poised to fuel this growth.

Regional Insights

North America captured nearly 50% of the global market in 2023 due to several key factors. These include advancements in medical technology, leading to the development of innovative products that address patient needs. Additionally, the availability of a skilled surgical workforce, the continual introduction of new medical devices, and well-established regulatory and compensation structures have all contributed to the market's growth in this region.
