PSEUDOTUMOR CEREBRI MARKET OVERVIEW

The global pseudotumor cerebri market size was USD 11.32 billion in 2024 and the market is projected to touch USD 17.59 billion by 2033 at a CAGR of 5% during the forecast period.

Pseudotumor cerebri, also known as idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), is a condition characterized by increased intracranial pressure (pressure around the brain) without the presence of a tumor or other identifiable cause. The term "pseudotumor" is used because the symptoms mimic those of a brain tumor, but there is no actual tumor. Common symptoms include headaches, often with a pulsatile nature, visual disturbances, and nausea. The exact cause of pseudotumor cerebri is not always clear, but it is more common in overweight women of childbearing age.

The pseudotumor cerebri market is driven by rise in aging population, growing cases of obesity, morbid eating habits, increasing prevalence of pseudotumor cerebri, the development of targeted therapies and investment in R&D to discover new treatment options.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Pandemic Hampered the Market Demand Due to Disruption in Healthcare Services

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with pseudotumor cerebri market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 pandemic led to significant disruptions in healthcare services globally. Hospitals and healthcare facilities were overwhelmed with COVID-19 cases, leading to delays or cancellations of non-urgent medical procedures and appointments. This could have affected the diagnosis and management of pseudotumor cerebri. The pandemic has also affected research activities and clinical trials. Some research projects or clinical trials related to pseudotumor cerebri might have been delayed or modified due to logistical challenges and reprioritization of resources towards COVID-19-related research. Individuals with pseudotumor may have faced challenges in accessing healthcare services, including routine check-ups, diagnostic procedures, and medication management. Fear of contracting COVID-19 in healthcare settings might have led some patients to avoid seeking necessary medical care.

LATEST TRENDS

Advancements in Diagnostic Technologies to Fuel Market Growth

Advances in diagnostic technologies and techniques may contribute to earlier and more accurate diagnoses of pseudotumor cerebri. This could lead to better management and treatment outcomes. The landscape of treatment options may evolve with the development of new drugs or therapies. Non-invasive interventions, such as medications or lifestyle modifications, may be explored alongside traditional surgical approaches.  Increased awareness about pseudotumor cerebri among healthcare professionals, patients, and the general public may lead to earlier detection and improved management. Patient advocacy groups play a crucial role in raising awareness and providing support. Pharmaceutical companies and research institutions continue to invest in the research and development of treatments for pseudotumor. New drug candidates or therapeutic approaches might be in various stages of clinical trials.
