Geriatrics and Athletes Driving Demand
For well over a century, soft tissue allografts have been considered a successful procedure, and each year, nearly 1 million allografts are transplanted in the U.S. alone. Soft tissue allografts are substitute tissues that are used to reconstruct deficient ligaments, spinal surgery, torn menisci, and osteochondral defects during knee surgery. Soft tissue allografts undergo a three-stage safety screening process of donor screening, laboratory testing, and tissue preparation. Soft tissue allografts can be made up of bone, tendons, cartilage, skin, heart valves, and veins used for transplant in different types of surgeries.

In the recent past, the usage of soft tissue allografts has grown due to increase in the number of cases in dental implants and orthopedic surgery. Escalating geriatric population, growing demand for new technological advancement for production of new tissues by tissue banks, and rise in demand of soft tissue allografts among athletes of numerous sports and other walks of life are some of the key factors driving the demand in the global soft tissue allografts market. Increase in ACL surgery, escalating incidences of diabetes foot ulcer, growing popularity of cosmetic surgery to treat facial disorders with new technologies are some of the other factors favoring the global soft tissue allografts market.
