According to our new research study on “Pectus Bar Market Forecast to 2031 - Global Analysis- by Type, End User, and Geography,” the market is anticipated to grow from US$ 52.96 million in 2023 and is projected to reach US$ 70.47 million by 2031; it is expected to register a CAGR of 3.6% during 2023-2031. Growing preference for minimally invasive procedures and use of biocompatible materials are among the most influential factors responsible for the pectus bar market growth. However, post surgical complications hinders the market growth. Use of multiple pectus bars to support chest are expected to bring new pectus bar market trends in the coming years.
More and more individuals are being diagnosed with pectus deformities, especially pectus excavates. As a result, the prevalence of such conditions is on the rise, thereby increasing the demand for treatment alternatives such as the introduction of pectus bars. One of the major factors driving this trend is the growing inclination towards performing less invasive surgical approaches.
In this regard, the Nuss procedure, which makes use of the pectus bar, is more commonly preferred due to fewer recovery times and complications than conventional surgeries. This trend is prompting an increasing number of patients to seek surgical treatment for pectus excavatum. However, post-surgical complications are one of the main aspects limiting the pectus bar market expansion.
North America accounted for a major share of the global pectus bar market in 2023. The pectus bar market in North America is segmented into the US, Canada, and Mexico. The pectus bar market in North America is expected to experience noticeable growth owing to growing awareness and developed healthcare facilities, along with advanced technologies to safely carry out the Nuss procedure (minimally invasive procedure) or Ravitch procedure (an open surgery) for treating chest wall deformity. Additionally, supportive healthcare initiatives in the region are expected to drive the market growth. In North America, the US is the largest market for pectus bars.
Pectus bars are used for the treatment of pectus excavatum and pectus carinatum, which affect the physical appearance and, in some cases, may affect the respiratory function. As per an article published in Elsevier journal in 2024, pectus excavatum affects one in every 400 newborns in the US, and in 40% of the cases, the patient has a family history of chest wall deformities.
As the country has well-developed healthcare facilities and infrastructure, surgical procedures are executed effectively. Moreover, the adoption of 3D printing technology and advanced imaging technology helps in the development of customized solutions for better outcomes creating the demand for pectus bars and provide impetus to its market growth in the coming years.
Virtual surgical planning has become an invaluable tool in several fields, with the goal of decreasing human error that would lead to improper fit of surgical devices and subsequent possible complications. The 3D virtual reconstruction from a computed tomography (CT) chest scan enables the surgical team to elaborate a detailed preoperative plan, including the number of implants required, their direction, and their entry points to the thoracic cavity.
According to the study “Initial experience with 3D printing in the use of customized Nuss bars in pectus excavatum surgery,” published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), in 2021, the 3D preoperative design of pectus bars with customized shape and size facilitates surgical planning. It also allows for the most optimal and accurate morphological repair possible, according to patient anatomy, thus reducing the need for additional surgical procedures. Thus, the growing focus on the use of 3D printing technology for customizing pectus bars acts as an opportunity for the pectus bars market growth.
The US Food and Drug Administration, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Global Burden of Disease Study are among the primary and secondary sources referred to while preparing the pectus bar market report.

Use of 3D Printing for Customized Pectus Bars to Provide Market Opportunities in Future
The site of chest wall insertion and bar shape are currently contoured and placed on the basis of the surgeon's judgment. Bar length is determined by placing a bar-shaped phantom above the patient’s external contour while considering it should cover the space between both midaxillary lines. Sometimes, bar shape is determined based on external chest morphology and thoracic CT-scan. However, planning and standardization of the repair of complex chest wall malformations is challenging, given their inherent heterogeneity. Various studies are going on for the use of technology, especially virtual surgical planning and 3D technology, to overcome complex chest wall malformations.Virtual surgical planning has become an invaluable tool in several fields, with the goal of decreasing human error that would lead to improper fit of surgical devices and subsequent possible complications.
