* Gain insight to market potential, including a robust 10-year epidemiology forecast of major abdominal surgeries.
* Understand the key epidemiologic risk factors associated with major abdominal surgery and how it is related to deep vein
thrombosis.
Highlights
Datamonitor's epidemiologists expect to see a small increase in the number of major abdominal surgeries between 2010 and 2020 in
the seven major markets (the US, Japan, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK). The number of abdominal surgeries is
expected to increase from around 7,436,000 surgeries in 2010 to 8,109,000 surgeries in 2020.
In 2010, Datamonitor expects that the number of abdominal surgeries will differ significantly by age group. In the seven major

between 45 and 64, and 950,300 surgeries in those over the age of 65.
The most commonly performed major abdominal surgery is Cesarean section in all seven major markets. It is estimated that
Cesarean sections make up approximately one third of all major abdominal surgeries.

Summary
MAJOR ABDOMINAL SURGERY DEFINITION
Definition and background of major abdominal surgery
VARIATION AND TRENDS IN MAJOR ABDOMINAL SURGERY
Over time, the number of abdominal surgeries has varied as most common abdominal surgeries have changed
Overall time trends
Trends in the type of surgery
DRIVERS OF MAJOR ABDOMINAL SURGERY
Risk factors that lead to major abdominal surgery
Bowel, rectal, and anal surgeries are typically driven by inflammatory bowel diseases and cancers
Common factors leading to stomach surgery are stomach cancer and severe obesity
Hysterectomy is performed for a variety of problems associated with the uterus, ovaries, and cervix
Gallstones are removed through cholecystectomy
Appendectomy is generally an emergency procedure to remove an appendix with acute appendicitis
Cesarean section is driven by a variety of pregnancy complications, including problems with both the fetus and the mother
Potential complications of major abdominal surgery
Blood clots, deep vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism can lead to significant morbidity and mortality
Surgical site infection is the most common complication of major abdominal surgery
Pulmonary complications following major abdominal surgery are not well studied, but can cause significant morbidity
Bowel obstruction is a complication that can occur long after abdominal surgery has been performed
