Knee surgical robot market set to surge, projected to reach $5.9B by 2032

Editor's Note

According to a new report by HTF Market Intelligence, the global knee surgical robot market is projected to grow significantly to reach $5.9 billion by 2032, up from $1.7 billion in 2025, Newstrail April 11 reports. This reflects a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.4%, driven by aging populations, rising demand for precision surgery, and growth in orthopedic procedures worldwide.

The report highlights key players such as Stryker, Zimmer Biomet, Smith & Nephew, Medtronic, Johnson & Johnson (DePuy Synthes), and Intuitive Surgical, as well as emerging firms such as THINK Surgical, Corin Group, and CUREXO.

Knee surgical robots, like MAKO (Stryker) and ROSA (Zimmer Biomet), are transforming joint replacement, boasting surgical accuracy, reduced recovery time, and improved patient outcomes. These systems reportedly assist in bone preparation, implant alignment, and soft tissue balancing, leveraging AI, haptic feedback, and real-time imaging for such promised results.

Key takeaway segments include, per the report:

• By type: Partial and total knee replacement robots, haptic systems, image-guided robotic arms, and planning software
• By application: Orthopedic surgery, robotic-assisted joint replacement, minimally invasive procedures, hospitals, and ambulatory surgical centers
• By region: North America leads the market, but the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to be the fastest-growing
• By pain points: Challenges include high costs, regulatory hurdles, and limited accessibility in rural areas.

The report also includes in-depth PESTLE and Five Forces Analysis, examining economic, political, technological, and competitive dynamics that may influence market growth and strategy.
