The global tendon repair market size is anticipated to reach USD 4.0 billion by 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market growth is driven by the increasing occurrence of accidents, particularly road accidents, increasing number of tendon-related injuries in sports is further expected to propel the demand for soft tissue repairs, including tendon repair. In addition, rotator cuff tear is one of the most common shoulder injuries. Manufacturers are involved in strategic initiatives such as gaining approvals and new product launches. For instance, in July 2023, Inovedis gained FDA Approval for its implant SINEFIX, which is used in fixation of rotator cuff tear, the implant system is said to follow a basic surgical technique, that efficiently refixes the rotator cuff tendon to the bone. The implant is further designed to provide flat & even contact with the tendon & bone.
Tendon injuries are most common among people who are involved in sports and physical activities. High-impact physical activities and high-contact sports are among leading causes of tendon & ligament injuries around the world. According to an article published by Truveta, in March 2023, which highlights that John Hopkins Medicine reports, approximately 30 million people take part in some organized sports, accounting for more than 3.5 million sports injuries each year in the U.S. alone, the most common injuries being sprains and strains. High-contact sports such as football contribute more to sports injuries, repeated usage of movements (in sports) and strains in sports such as tennis & swimming can also result in sports injuries such as rotator cuff injuries or tennis elbow or joint dislocation.
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is more prone to injuries during sports or strenuous activities. The posterior ligament is generally damaged as a result of a direct injury, such as a car accident. According to a study published in NCBI, approximately 100,000-200,000 cases of ACL injuries are reported each year in the U.S. alone. ACL repair depends on the patient’s lifestyle; a patient with a more active lifestyle would require a corrective surgery, a patient who is less active would be treated with physical therapy and other non-surgical options. An ACL study group was founded more than 50 years ago to continuously evaluate and improve repair techniques, the group involves members of all ethnicities, and the survey is published biennially.
Presence of government funding programs aimed at reducing the burden of orthopedic diseases, by introducing various surgeries, is expected to have a positive impact on the market, In addition incorporation of minimally invasive surgical procedures, coupled with technological advancements in developed economies, is expected to boost market growth. For instance, in February 2024, an article published by Joint Replacement Institute, Florida highlights the minimal invasive surgeries as a surgical innovation part, and its further role in robotic surgery, focused at reconstructing the torn ACL using graft tissue.
Some of the key players in the market are Stryker; Arthrex, Inc.; DePuy Synthes, Inc.; CONMED Corporation; Integra LifeSciences Holding Corporation; Zimmer Biomet and Smith & Nephew. For instance, in January 2023, Zimmer Biomet acquired Embody, a company known for manufacturing collagen-based implants designed to heal soft tissue injuries. The deal was pursued by Zimmer Biomet with the aim of expanding its sports medicine portfolio and gaining entry into the high market growth.

The suture anchor devices segment held the market with the largest revenue share of 38.5% in 2023. Suture anchors provide rigid fixation, often for use in shoulder surgeries but have multiple complications associated with them, making revision surgeries a challenge. The biodegradable suture anchors have been developed to overcome the complications associated with all metal suture anchors, other types of suture anchors include biostable anchors that are not absorbed quickly, unlike the biodegradable suture anchors
Based on application, the rotator cuff repair led the market with the largest revenue share of 37.6% in 2023. This is attributable to growing prevalence of rotator cuff tears, increasing deterioration with age, rising prevalence of traumas & accidents, coupled with increasing availability of advanced MedTech and healthcare facilities
North America dominated the market with the revenue share of 44.9% in 2023, due to the presence of a large number of major market players, high adoption of advanced technologies and government supporting digital health initiatives
