Knee Replacement Market Demand, Drivers & Updates
Knee Replacement Market Segment Overview and Implant Trends
The segment-wise analysis from MRFR’s Knee Replacement Market segment data shows that total knee replacement (TKR) remains the dominant procedure type, but unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) is gaining traction due to its minimally invasive nature and faster recovery. The choice between cemented and cementless implants, fixed-bearing vs mobile-bearing designs, and conventional vs patient-specific implants are shaping market segmentation.
Trends in implant technology — including high-flexion designs, gender-specific implants, and advanced biomaterials — are influencing both surgeon preference and patient outcomes. As a result, manufacturers are increasingly investing in R&D to expand their product portfolios, targeting both developed and emerging markets with differentiated implant solutions.
