The number of hysterectomies performed in the Netherlands is forecasted to see a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028, with values decreasing from 9.2 thousand procedures in 2024 to 8.49 thousand in 2028. This trend follows a slight downward trajectory observed in previous years. Looking at the year-on-year variation percentage, the change from 2024 to 2025 is approximately -1.96%, from 2025 to 2026 is -2%, from 2026 to 2027 is -2.04%, and from 2027 to 2028 is -1.96%. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over this five-year period is approximately -1.96%, reflecting an average annual decline in the number of procedures.
Future trends to watch for include advances in less invasive surgical techniques and alternatives to hysterectomy, which could further reduce the number of these procedures. Additionally, demographic shifts and changes in healthcare policy could influence these trends significantly.
