COVID-19 Impact on the Global Embolotherapy Market

The embolotherapy market is witnessing a loss of business, and the trend is expected to continue till December 2020. Unfavorable changes in regulations and guidelines are hampering the growth of this industry. Major regulatory authorities across the globe (such as CDC, WHO, MHRA, TGA, and EMA) have identified that cancer patients are at greater risk of COVID-19 infection than healthy adults. Thus, screening, diagnostic exams, and surgical procedures are being severely restricted or postponed at hospitals and cancer care centers. This is expected to cause disruption in the embolotherapy market. 

 

The embolotherapy devices market has experienced steady growth over the last decade, owing to the growing target patient population base, which has increased the number of target surgeries performed.

The high success rate and less post-operative complication rate associated with embolotherapy procedures coupled with the rising incidences of liver cancer and hepatocellular cancer will further boost the demand for embolotherapy devices in the near future.

The availability of effective conventional first-level therapies for the treatment of liver cancer, uterine fibroids, hemorrhagic stroke, and other hemorrhagic conditions is a key restraint to market growth. 

 

Healthcare markets are witnessing a dearth of well-trained surgeons (including neurosurgeons and radiologists). The Association of American Medical Colleges (US) has estimated a deficit of 41,000 general surgeons in the US by 2025 (Source: Association of American Medical Colleges US, 2017).
