As the people are demanding more convenience such as painless treatment, and less post operative stay in surgeries, the market is set to evolve as a miniature instrument based surgery in the future, which will ensure further convenience in such type of surgeries. The introduction of capsule endoscopy is one such example. The minimally invasive surgery market is evolving towards more convenience for the patients and subsequent technological advancements.

In the minimally invasive product market (which includes surgical devices, monitoring and visualization system, endosurgical equipments, medical robotics, and electrosurgical equipments), medical robotics is the fastest growing segment which is expected to reach $1.1 billion by 2014 growing at a CAGR of 21.3%, while surgical device alone constitute approximately $11.3 billion in 2009, which is more than 65% of the entire market.

In the minimally invasive application market (which includes gastrointestinal surgery, gynecology surgery, urology surgery, cosmetic surgery, obesity surgery, thoracic surgery, cardiac surgery, vascular surgery, orthopaedic surgery, and other surgery), cardiac surgery forms the major share of this market with estimated annual revenue of $11.2 billion in 2009. While orthopedic surgery is the highest growing market with a CAGR of 12.9% for the period 2009 to 2014 mainly due to introduction of new technologies such as joint replacements and bio implants in such surgeries.

The report also covers the segmentation of the minimally invasive/ non invasive market by:

* Technology (Transcatheter surgery, laparoscopy surgery, non visual imaging and robotics)

The da Vinci Robot is Cutting Edge Technology for Cardiac Surgery

By Alice Lane

We’ve come a long way from the days when the first open heart surgery operation took place in terms of cardiac rehabilitation programs. There may be a number of significant reasons for this progress including progress in the area of the surgery itself. One significant improvement is that of using robotic heart surgery and the impact that has on the recovery of the patient. The da Vinci surgical robot is being used quite regularly by skilled surgeons in the Chicago area.

The procedures are becoming more comfortable for the heart patients and thus an easier recovery. By using robotic-assisted surgical technique and allowing minimally invasive and extremely exacting surgical techniques, the patient has less trauma to their body, there is less pain and scarring which leads to faster healing and a reduction in the risk of infection. There is also the possibility of less blood loss during the surgery so the body is stronger coming out of the operation.
