Product Innovation Drives US Craniomaxillofacial Device Market
According to the new report entitled US Markets for Craniomaxillofacial Devices 2006, this market, which includes CMF plate and screw fixation, cranial flap fixation, facial distraction, temporomandibular joint replacement devices and bone graft substitutes used in CMF indications was valued at over $180 million in 2005.
Waltham, MA (PRWEB) June 27, 2006 -- Millennium Research Group (MRG), the global authority on medical technology market intelligence, reports that an aging population, increased adoption of premium-priced bioresorbable devices, and product innovation will drive the US craniomaxillofacial (CMF) device market. According to the new report entitled US Markets for Craniomaxillofacial Devices 2006, this market, which includes CMF plate and screw fixation, cranial flap fixation, facial distraction, temporomandibular joint replacement devices and bone graft substitutes used in CMF indications was valued at over $180 million in 2005.
Cranial flap fixation devices are composed of either metal or bioresorbable materials. Metal devices are typically stronger and less expensive than their bioresorbable counterparts and therefore have been the preferred choice for use in adult patients. In contrast, bioresorbables are used predominantly in pediatrics because, for younger patients, the presence of a long-term metal device in the cranium is less desirable.
MRGs US Markets for Craniomaxillofacial Devices 2006 report covers various key industry competitors, such as Synthes (SYST.VX), W. Lorenz Surgical (BMET), Stryker Leibinger (SYK), KLS Martin, Osteomed, Medtronic (MDT), Codman (JNJ), Aesculap, TMJ Concepts and TMJ Implants.
About Cranial Flap Fixation
The section of the skull that is excised and replaced during a craniotomy is known as the cranial flap. Once the craniotomy is completed, the cranial flap may be secured to the surrounding skull with wire sutures (which are used only in rare cases) or cranial flap fixators (clamps), and the scalp is closed with sutures and staples.
