The global knee replacement implants market is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate
(CAGR) of 6.8% over the period 2010–2017. The global knee replacement market had revenues of $6.9
billion in 2010, which will rise to about $10.9 billion in 2017. The high incidence of osteoarthritis (OA) due to the increasing elderly population and rise in obesity will spur the market growth. OA is the most
common cause of knee pain leading to knee replacement surgery. According to the US Center for
Disease Control (CDC), OA affects 13.9% of adults aged 25 and older and 33.6% (12.4 million) of those
65 and above. Other factors contributing to the market growth are the increasing demand from lower age groups and the increase in the number of replacement procedures.
The incidence of osteoarthritis, which is the most common form of arthritis, is increasing as the elderly
population continues to grow. This is true in both developed and developing economies. OA is the most
common musculoskeletal disease and contributes approximately 50% of the disease burden of this group. Studies by the US CDC have indicated that osteoarthritis affects nearly 43 million Americans, which is estimated to increase to 67 million or 25% of the adult population by 2030. There will be a continuous increase in the incidence of OA due to the increase in the elderly population and obesity levels.

In 2010, Zimmer Holdings was the leader in the global knee replacement implants market with 26% share, followed by DePuy Inc. with 24% and Stryker Corporation with 21%. Other major players in this market are Smith & Nephew (12%) and Biomet Inc. (11%). The knee replacement implants segment is very competitive, with a high possibility that company market rankings will change. There is a lack of truly innovative products in this segment, even though major companies currently have numerous products in the regulatory approval process. In developing countries, large international companies face significant competition from local manufacturers offering cheaper products. Companies in this field are resorting to partnerships to strengthen their position in the market and to develop products catering to specific needs of patients in different countries.
