Kidney Stone Retrieval Devices Market: Growth Factors

Escalating requirements of minimally invasive surgeries will steer the global market expansion over 2023-2030

Surge in the demand for minimally invasive surgical methods will drive the global kidney stone retrieval devices market trends. Moreover, the launching of new products will contribute majorly towards the global market earnings in the upcoming years. For instance, in the first half of 2018, Boston Scientific Corporation, a key U.S. firm manufacturing medical devices, launched LithoVue Empowwer, new kidney stone retrieval equipment designed to be used with a digital ureteroscope referred to as LithoVue. Moreover, the new device is compatible with a stone retrieval basket. Such moves are likely to steer the global market expansion. Moreover, a rise in the incidences of kidney stone diseases will expand the scope of demand for the product in the years to come. Furthermore, increased demand for kidney stone removal surgeries and acceptance of endoscopy for diagnosing kidney stones will push the global market demand. Apart from this, government laws favoring the use of minimally invasive surgical procedures will spearhead the global market elevation in the next couple of years.

Kidney Stone Retrieval Devices Market: Restraints

Strict regulations limiting the use of the devices in private hospitals in developing countries can put brakes on the global industry surge

Strict laws restricting the use of devices for only government hospitals in emerging economies and less availability of skilled persons will impede the global kidney stone retrieval devices industry expansion. High device costs can further retard the global industry surge over the forecasting timeline.

Kidney Stone Retrieval Devices Market: Opportunities

Surge in the occurrence of kidney stones has generated a huge demand for kidney stone retrieval devices

Increase in the cases of kidney disorders due to a hectic work schedule, strict working hours at the office, unhealthy diet intake, and changes in the dietary habits can open new avenues of growth for the global kidney stone retrieval devices market. Changing lifestyles and work-life imbalance have increased the probability of the creation of kidney stones and this has opened new facets of growth for the global market.

Kidney Stone Retrieval Devices Market: Challenges

Increasing cases of product duplications can retard the global industry elevation over the forecast period

Strict government laws in Europe pertaining to product usage and the rise in the import duties levied by the EU regarding the import of devices from other countries have culminated into a huge challenge for the global kidney stone retrieval devices industry.  Rise in the production of duplicate medical equipment can stagnate the growth of the industry in the coming years.

Kidney Stone Retrieval Devices Market: Segmentation

The global kidney stone retrieval devices market is sectored into product type, end-use, and region.        

In product type terms, the global kidney stone retrieval devices market is segregated into ureterorenoscopes, lithotripters, stone removal baskets, and ureteral stents segments. Furthermore, the lithotripters segment, which accumulated nearly 51% of the global market revenue share in 2024, is predicted to record the fastest CAGR in the upcoming years. The growth of the segment in the forecasting years can be owing to the low costs of procedures required when lithotripters are used along with the use of shockwave lithroscopy methods.

On the basis of Treatment, the global kidney stone retrieval devices market is bifurcated into Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy, Percutaneous Nephrolithotripsy, Intracorporeal Ureteroscopy.

Based on the end-use, the global kidney stone retrieval devices industry is sectored into hospitals & clinics, ambulatory surgery centers, and specialty clinics segments. Moreover, the hospitals & clinics segment, which garnered a huge share of the global industry in 2024, is anticipated to lead the global industry expansion over the projected timespan. The segmental growth over the assessment timeframe can be subject to the growing demand for kidney stone retrieving equipment for kidney stone treatment in hospitals & clinics.
