Research and Markets: Japanese Orthopedic Large Joint Reconstruction Devices Market (Executive Summary)

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4t3343/japanese) has announced the addition of the "Japanese Orthopedic Large Joint Reconstruction Devices Market (Executive Summary)" report to their offering.

“Japanese Orthopedic Large Joint Reconstruction Devices Market (Executive Summary)”

The Japanese orthopedic large joint reconstruction device market is expected to exceed $2.3 billion

over the 2012-2019 forecast period. The orthopedic large joint reconstruction device market includes hip and knee implants, as well as bone cements used to help adhere the implants to bone. Demand is increasing for large joint arthroplasty, which is attributed to the aging Japanese population and a higher number of highly active individuals. Procedure growth will rise again over the forecast period as patients are no longer able to postpone the elective joint replacement procedure.

Knee reconstruction will continue to outpace hip reconstruction growth throughout the forecast period. Both the knee and hip markets experienced a slowdown in growth in 2012, caused by reimbursement protocols instituted by the Japanese government, which limited ASP growth. Unit volumes will continue to grow steadily over the forecast period due to the growing demand for arthroplasty as the aging Japanese population continues to grow.

Scope: This report pertains to a forecast period of 10 years (2009 - 2019) for Japan
