In 2023, the total number of partial excisions of the mammary gland performed on day patients in the UK was lower than the projected 46,240 procedures anticipated in 2024. From 2024 to 2028, the procedure volume is expected to grow steadily, averaging a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.05%. Year-on-year forecasts suggest an increase of around 2.21% in 2025, 2.12% in 2026, and 2.03% in 2027, leading up to 2028's anticipated growth of 1.95% reaching 50,200 procedures.
Looking ahead, future trends to watch for include advancements in surgical techniques that may affect procedure volumes, as well as potential policy changes related to healthcare funding and patient management in outpatient settings. The emphasis on early detection and treatment of breast cancer could also influence demand and outcomes in this sector.
