At 3.1% CAGR, the Europe Hydrocephalus Shunts Market is projected to be worth US$ 103.40 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Europe hydrocephalus shunts market was valued at US$ 86.26 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 103.40 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 3.1% from 2022 to 2028. Increasing prevalence of hydrocephalus and increasing advancement in hydrocephalus valves are the critical factors attributed to the Europe hydrocephalus shunts market expansion.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain and spinal cord protects the central nervous system from injury and infection. The accumulation of excess CSF in brain cavities adds to intracranial pressure, thereby leading to hydrocephalus. The condition may further lead to macrocephaly and cognitive dysfunctions. Hydrocephalus is more prevalent in children and infants than adult population. Moreover, in a European cohort, the incidence rate was estimated at 110 cases of infantile hydrocephalus per 100,000 live births. The treatment approach of hydrocephalus highly focuses on managing CSF through medical devices named shunts. The shunt systems remove excess cerebrospinal fluid from the brain and divert it to other body parts, wherein it is absorbed as a part of the circulatory process. Thus, the high incidence of hydrocephalus leads drives the demand for hydrocephalus shunts, thereby boosting the Europe hydrocephalus shunts market growth.

On the contrary, high cost of treatment due to shunts and revision surgeries hampers Europe hydrocephalus shunts market.
