The urology devices market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In the previous years, the size of the urology devices market has experienced significant growth. By 2025, it is projected to expand from $38.54 billion in 2024 to $40.68 billion, maintaining a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%. The past growth can be credited to an aging demographic, an increase in urological disorders, technological advancements in minimally invasive procedures, improved awareness and diagnoses, and the development of healthcare infrastructure.
The Urology Devices market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market for urology devices is anticipated to experience substantial growth in the upcoming years. The market projection is set to reach $53.34 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%.
This predicted growth during the forecast period is attributable to factors such as an increasing geriatric population, preventive healthcare initiatives, advancements in treatment methods, global health issues, and patient-centered care. Prominent trends projected during this period consist of a heightened focus on female urology devices, the advancement of next-generation urodynamic systems, the expansion of urological endoscopy devices, personalized treatment strategies for erectile dysfunction, and market expansion in emerging economies.
The urology devices market is anticipated to experience significant growth driven by the increasing occurrence of urological ailments. These conditions comprise ailments that impact the urinary tract like urinary tract infections, bladder control issues, kidney stones, prostate problems, among others. As the worldwide population ages, and the occurrence of chronic illnesses like obesity and diabetes surges, it is expected that urological conditions will also rise. The demand for urology devices and relevant equipment, vital for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of these urological issues including prostate cancer, kidney stones, bladder cancer, erectile dysfunction among others will increase due to the high occurrence of urologic conditions. For example, a 2022 report from the Kidney Care Center, a US company specializing in diagnosing and treating all kidney-related ailments, estimated that kidney stones impact around one in every 10 Americans at some point. Additionally, a 2022 report from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia suggested that global heating will result in a 2.2% to 3.9% climb in kidney stone cases. Consequently, the increased occurrence of urologic conditions is expected to be a key driver for the urology devices market.

Leading corporations in the field of urology devices are directing their efforts towards developing innovative tools such as urology cameras to ensure elevated levels of prostate care. Primarily used during urologic procedures, these cameras are specialised devices that take detailed images of structures related to the urinary system such as the urinary tract, bladder, urethra etc. For example, Olympus Corporation, a Japan-based company renowned for optical technology, introduced their new 4K camera head model, CH-S700-08-LB in September 2024. This device, customized for procedures in urology and gynecology endoscopy, promises quadruple pixel resolution compared to standard HD camera heads due to its 4K white light and 4K Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) capabilities. It facilitates better observation of mucosal structures and capillary patterns, which is critical for detecting disorders like bladder cancer.
