Market opportunity

Everyone serves the 12% — we serve the 88%

Arcus Medical targets the vast underserved population of women seeking minimally invasive pelvic organ prolapse care — those avoiding surgery due to cost, recovery time, and stigma.

Competitive landscape

Where everyone else competes — and where we're differentiated

12%

Traditional market — surgical

  • FDA ban on transvaginal mesh eliminated a primary treatment option.
  • Abdominal mesh only — mainly via robotic sacrocolpopexy.
  • Hospital-based, requiring specialized OR infrastructure.
  • Complex native-tissue reconstruction demanding advanced surgical expertise.
88%

Arcus TLT market — non-surgical

  • Vaginal pessaries — high discontinuation, uncomfortable.
  • Pelvic-floor therapies — Kegels, biofeedback, EM stimulation; high failure for moderate-to-severe POP.
  • Untreated patients living with symptoms due to limited options.
  • Arcus addresses the gap with a simple, office-based approach.

Traditional surgery

Invasive procedures with significant barriers.
