Asia-Pacific Laparoscopic Devices Market Outlook (2021-2031)
Description
The Asia-Pacific laparoscopic devices market is projected to reach USD 5,465.6 million by 2031, growing from USD 2,546.0 million in 2024. This growth reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.5% from 2025 to 2031.
Executive Summary and Market Analysis
The laparoscopic devices market in the Asia-Pacific region is experiencing significant growth, driven by the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, an aging population, and a strong shift towards minimally invasive surgical (MIS) techniques. Notably, bariatric surgeries are increasing in the Asia-Pacific area due to the growing rates of obesity. For instance, the IFSO Global Registry Report—providing data up to 2023—indicated a substantial number of bariatric procedures performed globally, with Asia-Pacific countries contributing significantly to this volume. The trend shows an increase in the number of procedures, with sleeve gastrectomy being the most common. A 2024 bibliometric analysis of obesity surgery research in Asia also demonstrated a notable upward trend in publications, reflecting heightened surgical activity.
Minimally invasive approaches increasingly dominate general surgery in the Asia-Pacific region. The adoption of laparoscopic and robotic-assisted procedures is prevalent across various specialties. In South Korea, for example, robotic thyroidectomy and colorectal procedures accounted for over 25.42% of all MIS surgeries performed in 2023. Moreover, more than 75.74% of all minimally invasive abdominal surgeries in Japan involved reusable or disposable surgical devices, highlighting their importance. In India, over 90.65% of complex gynecologic and oncologic MIS cases occur in tertiary care hospitals, underscoring the critical role of institutional settings in fostering this vital segment.
Market Segmentation Analysis
The key segments contributing to the laparoscopic devices market analysis include product, application, and end user.
By Product:The market is segmented into energy systems, laparoscopes, suction devices, robot-assisted systems, insufflation devices, and access devices. The laparoscope segment led the market in 2024.
By Application:The market is segmented into general surgery, bariatric surgery, gynecological surgery, colorectal surgery, and others. The general surgery segment held the largest share in 2024.
By End User:The market includes hospitals and clinics, as well as ambulatory surgical centers. The hospitals and clinics segment held the largest share in 2024.
Market Outlook
The Asia-Pacific laparoscopic devices market is further segmented into China, India, Japan, Australia, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. The region is actively embracing minimally invasive techniques in colorectal surgeries to improve patient outcomes, particularly in response to the high incidence of colorectal cancer. While detailed country-specific data for laparoscopic colorectal surgeries in 2023-2024 is limited, recent research from the region indicates a strong focus on advanced surgical techniques. For example, a retrospective propensity-matched study conducted between January 2018 and February 2024 involved 1,715 patients who underwent minimally invasive colorectal surgery, with 461 cases utilizing robotic assistance and 1,254 using laparoscopy. This study demonstrates the continuing adoption of these methods for both right and left colectomies.
In gynecological surgery, the Asia-Pacific region is witnessing a significant shift towards minimally invasive and robotic-assisted procedures. The Asian Society of Gynecologic Oncology (ASGO) is actively promoting advanced gynecologic and laparoscopic surgery through its meetings and workshops, indicating a strong regional commitment to enhancing skills and adopting modern surgical techniques. The overall trend suggests a substantial increase in procedures such as laparoscopic hysterectomy and myomectomy. India, in particular, is experiencing notable growth in laparoscopic gynecological procedures, driven by rising demand for affordable, high-quality minimally invasive surgeries. This reflects a growing patient preference for less invasive options, leading to an increase in the volume of such procedures across the region.
Country Insights
The Asia-Pacific laparoscopic devices market is divided into several regions, including China, India, Japan, Australia, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. In 2024, China held the largest market share.
Countries like China and India are experiencing a surge in laparoscopic surgeries, driven by advancements in surgical techniques, robotic systems, and improved training programs for practicing surgeons. South Korea, Singapore, and Australia are leading the way in integrating robotic systems into clinical practice. However, in other countries, such as India, formal training for general surgeons in laparoscopic techniques is limited and primarily confined to residency programs. This may hinder the widespread adoption of minimally invasive surgical (MIS) services.
The laparoscopic devices market in China is dynamic and rapidly growing, influenced by the country's large population, increasing healthcare expenditures, and a strong national emphasis on advanced medical technologies, particularly minimally invasive surgeries. China's medical device market is the second largest in the world. It is expected to continue its significant growth, fueled by an aging population, a rising prevalence of chronic diseases, and government initiatives such as Made in China 2025, which prioritize domestic production of high-end medical devices. Notably, China has a substantial and increasing number of bariatric surgeries.
Company Profiles
Key players in the Asia-Pacific laparoscopic devices market include Medtronic Plc, Johnson & Johnson, Olympus Corp, Stryker Corp, Karl Storz SE & Co. KG, Boston Scientific Corp, B. Braun SE, Smith & Nephew Plc, ConMed Corp, and Intuitive Surgical Inc. These companies employ strategies such as expansion, product innovation, and mergers and acquisitions to remain competitive and provide innovative products to their customers.
