Global Fibroadenoma Market Size, Share, Forecast Report, 2020-2027

Fibroadenomas are benign tumours of the breast which are characterized by a mixture of stromal and epithelial tissue. Fibroadenomas originate from the milk producing glands to form a solid lump. Fibroadenomas are caused due to hormone imbalances and the symptoms are painless, firm, mobile lump in the breast of a woman. According to American Cancer Society, fibroadenomas are most common in young women in their 20s and 30s, although they can be found in women of any age. The growth of these tumours is faster during pregnancy, while menopause causes them to shrink. Fibroadenomas increase the risk of breast cancer by about one and a half times the risk of women with no Fibroadenomas. Removal of fibroadenomas, is the recommended treatment if they keep growing but sometimes these tumours stop growing or even shrink on their own, without any treatment. Fibroadenomas are more common in African-American women. Fibroadenomas are also called breast mice due to their high mobility in the breast.

Fibroadenomas are classified into two types, simple fibroadenoma and complex fibroadenoma. Simple fibroadenoma are about 1–3cm in size and generally do not increase the risk of developing breast cancer in the future. Complex fibroadenoma may increase the risk of developing breast cancer in the future.

Biopsy is the best procedure to detect fibroadenomas although non-invasive diagnosis such as ultrasound are in greater demand. Minimally invasive surgeries such as cryoablation, which uses an ultrasound to destroy the fibroadenoma are in huge demand. The non-invasive nature of these treatments reduce the pain and trauma associated with traditional surgery, thus, reducing the stay of hospitalization. However, minimally invasive surgeries are more expensive which will act as a drag on the market. Overall, the rising per capita income and the growing acceptance of the surgeries across the globe will drive the future market.

The market for treatment of fibroadenomas is growing due to factors such as growing use of hormonal contraceptives which increases the chances of fibroadenomas, genetic predisposition, greater screening rates, growing awareness etc. Sometimes fibroadenomas are treated with ormeloxifene. Obesity also increases the chances of developing fibroadenoma in breasts. The market restraints are the non-life threatening and self-resolving nature of fibroadenomas.

Considering all these factors, the market for fibroadenoma diagnosis and treatment is expected to reach $ 800 million by the end of 2023, this market is projected to growing at a CAGR of ~ 4.9 % during 2017- 2023.
