It provides a detailed breakdown of the market across major regions and leading countries, highlighting historical data and future growth projections. The report also examines the competitive landscape, market share insights, emerging trends, and strategic developments shaping the market.

The laser lithotripsy devices market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.15 billion in 2024 to $2.4 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of urolithiasis, growth in healthcare expenditure, increasing preference for non-invasive procedures, rising number of urology clinics and hospitals, and growth in surgical procedures.

The laser lithotripsy devices market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.64 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of kidney stones, rising demand for outpatient procedures, rising preference for advanced imaging techniques, increasing prevalence of metabolic disorders, and rising demand for improved patient outcomes. Major trends in the forecast period include the implementation of minimally invasive techniques, the development of portable laser devices, advancements in laser wavelengths, integration with robotic systems, and development of multi-functional devices.

The growing incidence of kidney diseases is expected to drive the growth of the laser lithotripsy device market in the future. This rise in kidney diseases is largely attributed to increasing rates of diabetes and hypertension, which impair kidney function. Additionally, lifestyle factors such as obesity and a sedentary lifestyle significantly contribute to this trend. Laser lithotripsy devices are employed to break down kidney stones into smaller fragments, facilitating their passage or removal through minimally invasive procedures. For example, in June 2023, Kidney Research UK reported that approximately 7.19 million people in the UK were affected by chronic kidney disease, representing over 10% of the population, with projections indicating an increase to 7.61 million by 2033. Furthermore, data from the Office for National Statistics published in February 2023 indicated that kidney stones caused 220 deaths in the UK in 2021, up from 179 deaths in 2020. Thus, the increasing prevalence of kidney diseases is fueling the demand for laser lithotripsy devices.

Leading companies in the laser lithotripsy devices market are focusing on developing more efficient and precise lasers, such as holmium laser technology, to enhance patient outcomes and operational effectiveness in urological procedures. Holmium laser technology utilizes a holmium laser with a wavelength that is highly absorbed by water and soft tissues, making it particularly effective for breaking kidney stones into smaller fragments. For example, in November 2022, Apollo Hospitals, a healthcare provider based in India, introduced Moses 2.0, which is India’s first advanced laser technology designed to treat large kidney stones and prostate hypertrophy. This endoscopic technique requires no incisions, minimizing pain and bleeding, and is especially beneficial for patients on blood thinners. It employs a high-power Holmium laser (120 watts) that auto-modulates to reduce blood clotting and bleeding, leading to operation times of approximately one hour. This method improves success rates for fragmenting kidney stones and reducing prostate size. Moses laser technology fragmentation (MLTF) has proven effective for stones of any size.

In September 2022, Advanced MedTech Holdings Pte. Ltd, a medical technology company based in Singapore, acquired Shenzhen Wikkon Medical Apparatus Co. Ltd. for an undisclosed sum. This integration is anticipated to accelerate innovation and enhance service delivery across its product offerings, ultimately providing greater value for both healthcare professionals and patients. Shenzhen Wikkon Medical Apparatus Co. Ltd. is a manufacturer of lithotripters based in China.

A laser lithotripsy device is a medical instrument that employs laser energy to fragment kidney and urinary tract stones into smaller pieces. This technique facilitates the removal of stones by breaking them down into fragments that are easier to pass or extract. It is preferred for its precision and minimized risk of damaging surrounding tissues compared to other methods.

The main types of laser lithotripsy devices include holmium yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) laser lithotripsy, thulium fiber laser lithotripsy, and others. Holmium YAG laser lithotripsy is a precise procedure used to break down kidney stones of various sizes and compositions for easier natural passage. These devices are available in different power levels, such as low-power, mid-power, and high-power, and are distributed through various channels including direct sales and distributors. They are utilized in hospitals, clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, and research institutes, serving both public and private end-users.
