The market for pre-washed laparotomy sponges accounted for the largest share of total laparotomy sponges market. This is due to the fact that they are utilized extensively while performing laparotomy sponge.
The market for laparotomy sponge is expected to witness high growth rate during the forecast period 2013 to 2019. This high growth is attributed to increasing number of laparotomy procedures across the globe. It has been estimated that in 2010, around 7,436,000 abdominal surgeries were performed in the U.S., Japan, Germany, Spain, U.K., France and Italy and this number is expected to reach a count of nearly 8,109,000 surgeries by 2020.

Hence, all these mentioned parameters will undoubtedly augment the growth of laparotomy sponges market.
Despite all the aforementioned advantages, the growth of laparotomy sponges market may get hampered due to shifting trend towards minimally invasive and non-invasive surgeries that are performed with minimal and no incision in the body respectively. Hence, requirement of laparotomy sponges gets eliminated with increasing number of minimally invasive surgeries. Also, due to increasing incidences of accidently left behind laparotomy sponges post surgery by surgeons, hinders the growth of laparotomy sponges market.
