Overview:
Cervical spondylotic myelopathy occurs due to the progressive degeneration of the spine. The symptoms associated with CSM are radiculopathy, myelopathy, and neck pain syndrome. Spinal laminoplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed to relieve the excessive pressure created in the spinal cord due to its compression against the wall of the spinal canal. In laminoplasty, an opening in made in the vertebral lamina region, to create extra space for the convenient and easy movement of the spinal cord. Earlier laminectomy was performed to reduce the pressure the spinal cord; whereas in the last few decades, it has been replaced with spinal laminoplasty due to non-requirement of removal of spinal lamina.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the prevalence of lumbar spine stenosis is ranging from 1.7% to 13.1% globally. The factors responsible for the growth of spinal laminoplasty market are the rising prevalence of spinal stenosis in geriatric population, increasing demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures for treating spine disorders and technological evolution of spinal laminoplasty as more advanced procedure as against spinal laminectomy and spinal fusion surgery.
Depuy Synthes, Inc., has a revolutionary product MOUNTAINEER laminoplasty system, which is available in all sizes to perform laminoplasty in any vertebral site. Medtronic Plc, has a center piece fixation system, which is frequently used for performing cervical laminoplasty. Cervical laminoplasty is more frequently performed in patients suffering with intense neck pain, numbness in fingers and balancing problems. Lumbar laminoplasty will register a significant growth in the near future due to rising incidence of traumatic accidents affecting the lumbar vertebrae.
Key players identified for spinal laminoplasty market include:
Arthro Kinetics, Cryo Life, DePuy Synthes, Inc., Medtronic Plc, NP Solutions, Pioneer Surgical Technologies, Raymedica, Replication Medical, Synthes Spine and Zimmer Spine.
