NEW YORK, Jan. 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The global general surgery devices market was valued at USD 7.0 billion in 2015 and is expected to reach a value of USD 17.5 billion by 2024, based on a new study by Grand View Research, Inc.

Several technological changes have been witnessed in varied segments of abdominal and hernia surgeries; cardiac, trauma and burn surgeries; and in breast and plastic surgeries.
