Lymphedema Treatment Market Size & Share, Growth by 2028

The lymphedema treatment market is projected to reach US$ 11.58 billion by 2028 from US$ 8.15 billion in 2021; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2021 to 2028.

Lymphedema is a condition in which the body enlarges abnormally due to the lymphostasis caused by lymphatic system dysfunction. It most commonly affects the lower extremity (90%), upper extremity (10%), and genitalia (1%). Primary lymphedema is present at birth whereas secondary lymphedema is caused by lymphatic system inefficiency or damage. The secondary lymphedema frequently develops after cancer treatment. Lymphedema is caused by obstructions in the passage of lymph fluid caused by surgery, radiation therapy, or cancer growth. The feelings of tightness or heaviness; swelling in legs, arms, or other body parts; aching or discomfort; and fibrosis, which thickens or hardens the skin, are among the common symptoms of lymphedema.

The growth of the lymphedema treatment market is attributed to the growing incidence of lymphedema and increasing number of lymphedema management programs with a surge in the promotion of telehealth services in various countries. However, the lack of skilled professionals and high surgical costs in developing economies hamper the market growth.

Market Insights
Rising Cases of Lymphedema

According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, lymphedema can occur in cancer patients upon the onset of the disease or after its treatment, which affect lymph node drainage. For example, it has been reported that it can occur within days and up to 30 years after the treatment for breast cancer. Also, 80% of patients experience onset within 3 years of surgery, and the remainder develops edema at a rate of 1% per year. Additionally, a large patient pool, particularly women, suffers from lower-limb lymphedema after the treatment of gynecologic cancer, with the highest prevalence (37%) among vulvar cancer survivors and lowest prevalence (7%) among ovarian cancer survivors. Further, the overall incidence of arm lymphedema ranges from 8% to 56% at two years post-surgery. The Alliance Z 1071 longitudinal substudy of the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group (ACOSOG) states that in breast cancer trials, patients report a 3-year cumulative incidence of arm swelling and arm heaviness. Highly effective and advanced cancer treatment options assist in minimizing the risk of lymphedema. Therefore, major players in the cancer therapeutics market are highly focused on launching innovative products.

Condition Type - Based Insights

Based on condition type, the global lymphedema treatment market has been segmented into primary lymphedema and secondary lymphedema. The secondary lymphedema segment held a larger share of the market in 2021. However, the primary lymphedema segment is anticipated to register a higher CAGR in the market during the forecast period. The current market growth of the secondary lymphedema segment is attributed to the fact that cancer treatment is a prominent cause of secondary lymphedema, and majority of people suffering from secondary lymphedema are high in the developing and developed countries.  

Treatment Type - Based Insights

Based on treatment type, the global lymphedema treatment market has been segmented into laser therapy, compression devices and bandaging, drug therapy, physiological procedures, debulking procedures, and others. The physiological procedures segment is further segmented into lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA) and vascularized lymph node transfer (VLNT). Further, the debulking procedures segment is subsegmented as surgical debulking, liposuction, and others. The compression devices and bandaging segment accounted for the largest market share in 2021. Companies in the lymphedema treatment market are developing different types of compression garments and are promoting cost-effective products. Further, the physiological procedure segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR in the market during the forecast period.

End-User - Based Insights

Based on end-user, the global lymphedema treatment market has been segmented into hospitals, clinics, clinical research organizations (CROs), and others (ambulatory care centers and primary care centers). The hospitals segment captured the largest market share in 2021. The clinics segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period; the market growth of this segment can be ascribed to the fact that lymphedema treatments are mostly offered in specialized centers or units. Specialized surgical treatments such as liposuction and debulking procedures take place in specialty clinics that have a dedicated department for neurology, or more specifically, lymphedema treatment.
