LATIN AMERICA SOFT TISSUE REPAIR MARKET

Latin America Soft Tissue Repair Market Size is anticipated to grow at a 7.84% CAGR from
2016 to 2021 and it is estimated that the Latin America market was valued at USD 1.42
billion in 2016 and is relied upon to achieve USD 2.07 billion by 2021.Soft tissue repair is a
technique for restoring functions of damaged or injured tissues such as ligaments, muscles,
and other tissues. Soft tissue repair can be accomplished through surgical meshes such as
allografts, xenografts, alloplasts and synthetic.
The major factors driving the market are the rise in the count of geriatric population, obesity
and growing awareness for the treatment of tissue injuries. Moreover, rising incidences of
sports related injuries and rising healthcare expenditure, are other factors that are likely to
fuel the market growth. However, the high cost of treatment, lack of expertise, and an
ambiguous reimbursement scenario are likely to curtail the market growth. Primary factors
driving the growth of the global soft tissue repair market are increasing disposable income
and changing lifestyles among populations in developing economies. Moreover, a rise in the
geriatric population, increasing hernia repairs, and growing incidence of breast cancer are
factors driving demand for wound care and soft tissue repair products globally. However,
ethical concerns arising from cultural aversion towards the use of tissue from human
cadavers and stringent regulations for biological meshes are expected to hamper the growth
of the global soft tissue repair market.
