Intramedullary Nailing System Global Market Report 2025

The intramedullary nailing system market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.29 billion in 2024 to $1.38 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%. The growth during the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the rising demand for bone fracture treatments, a higher incidence of orthopedic injuries, a preference for minimally invasive surgeries, an aging population with fractures, and the increasing adoption of advanced surgical techniques.

The intramedullary nailing system market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.79 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The growth projected for the forecast period is driven by factors including heightened awareness of orthopedic solutions, a rise in global healthcare spending, a higher number of trauma surgeries, improved access to advanced materials, and an expanding elderly population. Key trends expected during this period include progress in surgical methods, the integration of robotics into surgeries, technology-driven innovations in device design, advancements in biomaterials for implants, and continued development in minimally invasive techniques.

The increasing frequency of orthopedic injuries is anticipated to drive the growth of the intramedullary nailing system market in the future. Orthopedic injuries involve damage to bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, or nerves, typically resulting from accidents, overuse, or degenerative conditions. The occurrence of these injuries is rising, particularly among the elderly, as age-related conditions such as osteoporosis and joint degeneration weaken the musculoskeletal system, making older adults more prone to fractures, joint problems, and other related injuries. The intramedullary nailing system is beneficial for these injuries, providing stable internal fixation for long bone fractures, ensuring proper alignment, enabling early mobility, and promoting quicker recovery with minimal soft tissue damage. For example, in November 2024, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) projected a 107% increase in hip fractures in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland by 2060, reaching around 139,105 cases. This rise is anticipated to be higher among males at 130%, compared to a 97% increase in females. Thus, the growing incidence of orthopedic injuries is contributing to the expansion of the intramedullary nailing system market.

Leading companies in the intramedullary nailing system market are working on developing advanced implant systems, such as next-generation intramedullary nailing solutions, to improve surgical outcomes and enhance patient recovery. These advanced systems are designed to stabilize fractured bones using improved biomechanics, minimally invasive techniques, and superior materials for better fixation, quicker recovery, and fewer complications. For example, in March 2024, Stryker Corporation launched the Gamma4 Hip Fracture Nailing System, an advanced solution aimed at treating both stable and unstable fractures across the femur, including intracapsular, trochanteric, subtrochanteric, and shaft regions. It is particularly effective for osteoporotic and osteopenic bones. The system features a redesigned nail based on anatomical data from over 37,000 3D bone models, a precision pin that reduces skiving by 66%, and an integrated instrument platform to streamline surgical workflows.

In July 2022, Acumed LLC, a US-based orthopedic medical device provider, acquired ExsoMed Corporation for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition enables Acumed to enhance and broaden its upper extremity solutions portfolio by integrating ExsoMed's innovative, minimally invasive surgical devices for treating hand injuries and fractures. This move aims to provide surgeons with advanced tools for more effective and efficient treatments. ExsoMed, based in the US, manufactures intramedullary nailing systems.

An intramedullary nailing system is a surgical technique where a metal rod is inserted into the central cavity of a long bone to provide internal support for fractures. This system typically includes locking screws that secure the rod in place, ensuring proper alignment during the healing process, which facilitates strong fixation and enables early mobilization.

The key products in the intramedullary nailing system include locked intramedullary nails, unlocked intramedullary nails, hybrid intramedullary nails, among others. Locked intramedullary nails are metal rods placed into the bone's marrow canal to stabilize fractures, commonly in long bones such as the femur or tibia. These nails are made from materials such as stainless steel, titanium alloys, and carbon fiber composites, and are distributed through direct sales, wholesalers, distributors, online platforms, and hospital procurement. They are used in various medical procedures, including fracture fixation, bone reconstruction, osteotomy, and the treatment of non-unions, with applications in hospitals, orthopedic clinics, rehabilitation centers, and other healthcare settings.
