In 2023, open prostatectomy procedures in Italy stood at 38.17 units per hundred thousand persons. From 2024 to 2028, the forecast data shows a consistent decline from 37.77 to 36.17, representing a steady average decrease. Year-on-year, the procedures decline by approximately 1.06% from 2024 to 2025 and continues at a similar rate in the subsequent years. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 is roughly -1.1%, indicating a modest but sustained reduction in procedure rates.
Future trends to watch include technological advances and improvements in less invasive treatments which may further reduce the need for open prostatectomies. Additionally, demographic shifts and healthcare policy changes may influence demand and procedural practices in this domain.
