In 2023, the number of open prostatectomies performed as day cases in France stood at 1. The forecasted data for the next few years shows a steady but minimal increase, remaining at 1 for 2024 and 2025, and then experiencing a slight rise to 1.1 for 2026 through 2028. This indicates a stagnant growth with a very marginal change over the five-year projection period. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for this period is low, reflecting little innovation or change in the procedure volume.
Future trends to watch for include technological advancements that could lead to shifts from traditional open procedures to minimally invasive surgeries. Also, demographic changes, such as the aging population, might influence an increase in the number of such surgeries. Health policy adaptations and healthcare reimbursement models will also play a crucial role in shaping future volumes.
