The number of laparoscopic appendectomies performed in Canada is forecasted to increase steadily from 36.38 thousand inpatient cases in 2024 to 38.32 thousand by 2028. Compared to 2023, the number of cases is expected to follow an upward trend. The year-on-year increase is approximately 1.3%, indicating stable growth. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period is projected to be around 1.3% as well.
Future trends to monitor include advancements in minimally invasive surgical techniques, which could enhance operational efficiency and increase procedure preference due to shorter recovery times. Additionally, demographic changes and healthcare policy shifts in Canada could impact the volume of such surgeries. Monitoring healthcare infrastructure development and training programs for surgical talent may also offer insights into future trends in laparoscopic procedures.
