Femoral Head Prostheses Market Size, Share and Global Trend By Product (Standard femoral head, Biarticular femoral head), Material (Stainless steel heads, Alumina heads, Chrome & cobalt alloy heads, Ceramics heads), Disease Indication (Femoral head necrosis, Hip dysplasia, Femoral neck fracture), End Users (Hospitals, Speciality clinics, Ambulatory Surgery Centers) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Nowadays many people have to undergo a hip replacement surgery due to various health issues. Hip replacement is a type of surgery in which a damaged hip is replaced by an artificial one (prosthesis). Adults of any age group can have hip replacement done. According to the American Joint Replacement Registry, more than 860,000 Hip and Knee Arthroplasty procedures were reported in 2016 in United States. During hip replacement, four components are implanted to create a new hip, namely, acetabular component, a plastic liner, the femoral stem, and a femoral head. Femoral head prostheses is a ball-shaped structures that fits directly into the new socket and is attached to the femoral stem. Femoral head prostheses are available in variety of shapes and sizes and are mainly made up of stainless steel, ceramic, chrome & cobalt alloy and others. 

The growth in global femoral head prostheses market is being driven by the rise in demand for prosthetics, introduction of implantable products by key players in the market, and improved health reimbursement for orthopaedic prosthetics. Moreover, increase in number of hip replacement surgery all over the world is further expected to drive the global femoral head prostheses market.

However, stringent government guidelines associated with the use of prosthetic products is a factor that might hinder the growth in global femoral head prostheses market during the forecast period.
