Minimally Invasive Neurosurgical Systems Market

Industry Overview

The Minimally Invasive Neurosurgical Systems Market refers to the industry involved in the development, production, and sale of medical devices and technologies specifically designed for performing neurosurgical procedures with minimal invasiveness. These systems aim to reduce trauma to patients by using smaller incisions, specialized instruments, and advanced imaging technologies. The global minimally invasive neurosurgical systems market was valued at USD 0.45 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach USD 2.4 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 11.5% during the forecast period 2025-2030.

Minimally invasive neurosurgical systems will allow neurosurgery with a small incision on the skull. They enable to maximize visualization of cranial tissue and reduce postoperative complications during surgical procedures. Technological development in neurosurgical systems and instruments has led to innovations in the healthcare sector globally. The rising prevalence of neuro-disorders, advantages offered by minimally invasive neurosurgery, mounting R&D investment, technological development in MIS and robotics-based surgeries will accelerate the growth of the minimally invasive neurosurgical systems market. The development of a digital camera will aid in the visualization of the operating field and requires small surgical instruments that pass-through endoscopes, resulting in less trauma to the patient owing to small incisions on the skull. Therefore, there is a preference for minimally invasive neurosurgeries that will drive growth globally.

COVID-19 pandemic had significantly impacted the Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery Device Market. Owing to a pandemic, healthcare equipment is preserved for patients infected with the coronavirus that increases delays in neurosurgeries owing to the high risk of getting infected, and are negatively affected the growth of this market.

Market Segmentation

Insight by Product Type

Based on product type, the global minimally invasive neurosurgical systems market is divided into neuro microscope, neuronavigation, neuroendoscopy, and neurosurgical robots. The neuronavigation segment is further sub-divided into optical neuronavigation systems and electromagnetic neuronavigation systems. The neuroendoscopy is further sub-divided into rigid neuroendoscopy systems and flexible neuroendoscopy systems. The neurosurgical robots are further sub-divided into systems (capital equipment), instruments and accessories, and services. Neurosurgical robots are anticipated to grow significantly as it offers connected interface, motion scaling, and tremor filtration. Moreover, the rising requirement for using multiple surgical devices through multiple access ports of endoscopes will fuel the growth of minimally invasive neurosurgeries.

Insight by Surgery Type

Based on surgery type, the global minimally invasive neurosurgical systems market is segmented into intracranial surgery, endonasal neurosurgery, and spinal surgery. Intracranial surgery accounts for the highest market share in 2020 owing to the rising number of surgeries of brain and increasing cases of brain disease. Endonasal surgery is anticipated to have the fastest CAGR owing to the rapid recovery time and decreased risk of neurological damage.

Industry Dynamics

Industry Trends

One of the important trends existing in the minimally invasive neurosurgical robotics market is the rapid recovery of the patient and enhances its postoperative quality of life and there is a lot of investment in the healthcare industry, resulting in the growth of the global minimally invasive neurosurgical robotics market. Minimally invasive neurosurgical systems have revolutionized the field of neurosurgery by offering several advantages over traditional open surgery, including reduced post-operative pain, shorter hospital stays, faster recovery times, and decreased risk of complications. These systems have found applications in various neurosurgical procedures, such as brain tumor removal, spinal surgery, aneurysm repair, and treatment of movement disorders like Parkinson's disease

Growth Drivers

The growing geriatric population, advantages offered by minimally invasive neurosurgical procedures over conventional open surgical procedures, technological development such as the development of endoscope design that is compact efficient, provides enhanced resolution and better illumination, availability of developed products in the field of neurosurgical procedures are the factors contributing to the growth of the minimally invasive neurosurgical systems market. Moreover, rising cases of neurological disorders, shifting towards a patient-centric model will accelerate the growth in the market. According to the National Institute of Health, approximately 276 million people were suffering from neurological disorders in 2016 which lead to the rising use of fluoroscopy and will accelerate the growth of the minimally invasive neurosurgery system market during the forecast period 2023-2030.

Surgical Navigation Systems: These systems use advanced imaging techniques like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) scans to provide real-time guidance during surgery. Surgeons can visualize the patient's anatomy and precisely navigate surgical instruments to the target area, enhancing accuracy and safety.

Endoscopes: These are flexible or rigid tubes with a camera and light source attached, allowing surgeons to visualize internal structures without making large incisions. Endoscopes can be inserted through small openings, such as natural body orifices or small incisions, providing a minimally invasive approach for diagnosis and treatment.

Robotic-Assisted Surgical Systems: Robotic systems provide surgeons with enhanced precision, dexterity, and visualization during procedures. Surgeons control robotic arms equipped with specialized instruments, which can perform complex maneuvers with improved accuracy.

Radiosurgery Systems: Radiosurgery employs focused beams of radiation to treat abnormalities in the brain or spine, eliminating the need for traditional surgical incisions. These systems use technologies like gamma knife or CyberKnife to precisely target the affected area while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.

Challenges

The high installation and maintenance cost of neurosurgical robotic systems, lack of trained professionals, restrictive reimbursement framework are the challenges faced by the minimally invasive neurosurgery system market during the forecast period 2025-2030.

Opportunities

The advancement of long-distance teleoperated surgical robots and the advancement of AR in the operating field are opportunities leading to the growth of the minimally invasive neurosurgery system market during the forecast period 2025-2030.
