Latin America Surgical Sutures Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The size of the Latin American Surgical Sutures Market is predicted to grow USD 0.51 Billion by 2028 from USD 0.40 Billion in 2023, registering a CAGR of 5.1% from 2023 to 2028.

A surgical suture is a medical tool to stitch the cutaneous wound and close the surgical incision. It is used to stitch internal organs after surgery, skin, blood vessels, and all other tissues of the human body. Sutures could be absorbable or non-absorbable, with different properties (such as tensile strength and knot security) depending on the need and surgery. Surgical sutures are the medical devices used to knit off the opened cuts, and injured wounds, mainly when operations are performed.

Factors like an increasing number of surgeries, many launches of various devices in healthcare with the latest technology, and focus on getting approvals from the FDA by crucial players are boosting the market growth. Major factors driving the growth of this market include the increasing number of surgical procedures, favorable reimbursement scenarios for several surgical procedures, and the launch of advanced sutures. The growing popularity of cosmetic surgeries and increasing healthcare demand in low- and middle-income countries also provide significant growth opportunities in the market.

Lack of trained professionals for using the surgical sutures and high cost of the devices that can’t be affordable by ordinary people are some factors that are restraining the market growth. Increasing preference for minimally invasive surgical procedures and the presence of alternative wound care management products are the key factors expected to restrain the growth of this market.
