Bioabsorbable Stents Market by Material (Polymer/Metal), Absorption Rate (Slow, Fast), Application (Coronary Artery Disease/CAD, Peripheral/PAD) & End User (Hospital, Cardiovascular Center) - Global Forecasts to 2022
Updated date -
[138 Slides Report] The global bioabsorbable stents market is expected to reach USD 417.2 million by 2022 from USD 242.4 million in 2017, at a CAGR of 11.5% during the forecast period. Market growth of bioresorbable stents is attributed to the growing aging population susceptible to coronary and peripheral artery diseases, rising PCI procedures, increasing focus of companies on clinical trials of bioresorbable stents, increasing adoption of these stents by physicians and patients, and patients’ preference for minimally invasive therapies.
Selected Market Dynamics in Bioabsorbable Stent Market
Strong product pipeline
Companies are increasingly focusing on developing stents that are efficient, can be fully absorbed into the body, and can naturally restore the movement of the artery while healing it. These stents are used for treating CAD and PAD.
This strong pipeline of highly advanced products is expected to play an important role in driving the growth of the bioresorbable stents market during the forecast period.
Presence of substitutes
Bioresorbable stents are a relatively novel technology that is expected to cannibalize the markets for bare-metal and drug-eluting stents in the coming years. However, at present, there are various other substitutes available for treating blocked arteries as well as CAD and PAD. For example, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is a therapy where blockages in the coronary artery are bypassed, and the blood is directed to flow through a different artery from the leg or the arms. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 395,000 CABG procedures are performed annually in the U.S. alone.
Another substitute—Xenograft—is used in procedures that require replacing damaged or blocked valves. Therapies such as laser ablation are also available, which use a catheter that has a metal or optic tube at the tip of the device to burn away plaque in the arteries.
In addition to these substitutes, patients also have the option to choose from a wide range of stents commercially available in the market. Many of these traditional stents are comparatively lower priced than bioresorbable stents. These substitutes and lower-priced alternatives pose a major challenge to the bioresorbable stents market.

The global bioabsorbable stents market is expected to reach USD 417.2 million by 2022 from USD 242.4 million in 2017, at a CAGR of 11.5% during the forecast period. Market growth of bioresorbable stents is attributed to the growing aging population susceptible to coronary and peripheral artery diseases, rising PCI procedures, increasing focus of companies on clinical trials of bioresorbable stents, increasing adoption of these stents by physicians and patients, and patients’ preference for minimally invasive therapies. However, factors such as the increasing product withdrawals due to severe complications of these stents may hamper market growth.
Bioabsorbable stents or scaffolds are implanted within the artery for clearing the blockage caused due to the accumulation of plaque (cholesterol, fatty substances, cellular waste products, calcium, and fibrin). These devices dissolve within the body after eluting the drug within a certain period of time and are aimed at increasing the efficiency of the treatment by reducing the chances of thrombosis and dual anti-platelet therapy among patients.
Based on material, the bioabsorbable stents market is segmented into bioresorbable polymer-based stents and bioresorbable metallic stents. The bioresorbable polymer-based stents segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR. The growth of this market is mainly attributed to companies’ increasing focus on developing polymeric stents and increasing approvals for polymer-based stents across various regions
Based on application, the market is segmented into coronary artery diseases and peripheral artery diseases. In 2017, coronary artery diseases accounted for the largest share of the market. The dominance of this segment is attributed to factors such as increasing aging population prone to coronary and the adoption of unhealthy lifestyle habits leading to increased risk of coronary artery diseases.
Based on end users, the bioabsorbable stents market is segmented into hospitals and cardiac centers. The hospitals segment is expected to dominate the market and grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The high growth of this segment is attributed to increasing need of surgeries, growing risk of CAD and PAD, and improving reimbursement scenario for the hospitals.
Geographically, the bioabsorbable stents market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia, and the Rest of the World (RoW). In 2017, Europe is expected to dominate the market, followed by Asia. The dominance of European region is majorly attributed to increasing regulatory approvals for stents which will facilitate their commercialization and rising research activities for development of bioresorbable stents. The market in North America is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Factors such as increasing prevalence of CAD and PAD, patient preference for minimally invasive therapies, unhealthy lifestyle habits, and huge patient pool are enabling this market to grow in this region
Hospitals form the largest and fastest growing end user segment.
Hospitals
Hospitals are the largest and fastest growing end users of bioresorbable stents. The large share of this segment is primarily driven by the large number of treatment procedures carried out in hospitals for treating cardiac disorders and peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Hospitals are also expected to witness significant growth in this market mainly due to the rapidly increasing patient pool and the growing prevalence of CAD and PAD. In addition, initiatives and support programs to provide cost-effective and quality treatment make it easier for patients to afford various procedures that make extensive use of medical devices, such as bioresorbable stents.
Cardiac Centers
Cardiac centers are witnessing an increased patient inflow due to the high patient pool already being treated at hospitals. They are considered as key alternatives to hospitals as these centers focus specifically on cardiac care. Growth in this segment can primarily be attributed to the increasing prevalence of CAD, improving life expectancy of patients, and reduced cost of post-op cardiac care. In addition, the significant increase in the incidence of heart attacks and strokes is also expected to propel the demand for bioresorbable stents in cardiac centers.
Critical questions the report answers:
- Which of the end user bioabsorbable stents market will dominate in future?
- North America have immense opportunities for the growth of bioresorbable stents, will this scenario continue?
