The report offers a comprehensive analysis of key segments, trends, drivers, restraints, competitive landscape, and factors that are playing a substantial role in the market.

Global Ureteroscopes Market Definition

The Ureteroscopy is an effective and safe examination of the upper urinary tract, usually performed with a ureteroscope that passes through the urethra and also the bladder, then directly into the ureter. Ureteroscopy is useful in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders such as kidney stones and urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract. The Ureteroscopy is considered the first-line treatment option for urinary tract stones the examination can be performed with either a flexible, semi-rigid or rigid ureteroscope.

The Ureteroscope is a medical device, that is a thin tube-like device with illuminating light and a lens to capture images of the complex urinary tract organs for the presence of calculi or tumors. It is passed through the urethra to the bladder and then into the ureter for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney stones. The device helps to understand the position of the kidney stone and also in the treatment of kidney stone removal. It is a minimally invasive procedure to remove the kidney stone and has shown higher accuracy and the least rate of complications when compared to the traditional methods of kidney stone removal such as extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), etc.

The Kidney stone can either be removed by using a basket attached to the ureteroscope or it can be broken down into fragments that are excreted through urine outside the body. One of the major benefits of ureteroscopes is that there is minimum contra-indication for the procedure. In addition, recently the role of ureteroscopes has extended, mainly due to the rising prevalence of obesity, bleeding diathesis, and pediatric stone disease. The prevalence of obesity is at an all-time high and it has been observed that obese people are at a high risk of developing kidney stones.

Global Ureteroscopes Market Overview

Globally prevalence of the obesity is at an all-time high and ureteroscopy is generally considered the ideal choice for obese patients. An increase in the bleeding diathesis, the prevalence of obesity, and pediatric stone disease led to the extension of the role of the ureteroscopes, and therefore ureteroscope activity has increased. The increase in technological advancement such as single-use flexible ureteroscopes coupled with the diversification of applications has helped in market growth.

The rising incidence of kidney stones diseases and rising prevalence of urologic cancers globally owing to the changing dietary habits and the climatic conditions are anticipated to boost the growth of the Global Ureteroscopes Market during the forecast period. Furthermore, growing research and development activities in flexible video-ureteroscopes, the invention of disposable ureteroscopes devices, and increasing adoption of the technologically advanced ureteroscopes are also propelling the growth of the Global Ureteroscopes Market.

The Ureteroscopy is an effective and safe test for primarily treating ureteral stones, tumors, or strictures. Technological advancements in the size and design area of the ureteroscopes have allowed easier access to the ureter and the kidney via the urethra, eliminating the need for any surgical incision. Furthermore, with the semi-rigid and flexible ureteroscopes, nearly all parts of the urinary tract can also be easily assessed, with the high-quality digital optics providing an accurate assessment of mucosal lesions and stones. One of the major benefits of ureteroscopes is that there is a minimum contra-indication for the procedure. In addition, recently the role of the ureteroscopes has extended, mainly due to the rising prevalence of obesity, bleeding diathesis, and pediatric stone disease.

The prevalence of obesity is at an all-time high and it has been observed that obese people are at high risk of developing kidney stones. This is anticipated to further accelerate the growth of the market for flexible and semi-rigid ureteroscopy. Increased anesthetic risk and other treatments such as shock wave lithotripsy or percutaneous nephrolithotomy are often unsuccessful. Hence, ureteroscopy is often considered the ideal choice for obese patients. This factor can further drive the development of the market over the forecast period. Though, the high cost of ureteroscopy might hamper the Ureteroscopes Market during the forecasted period.
